I really do not like the man...but really? Are we that Damn uptight that we have to over analyze everything we did 20 or 30 years ago that meant absolutely nothing?

It's what the left and their media friends have been doing for a while now.

We didn't build this.

Except Cleopatra was white.

Yes, Tucker is absolutely right. The difference in Don Lemon's treatment of Megyn Kelly and Justin Trudeau proves it.

Not true. Just become a liberal and then you can blame society for making you do it. If you have a (D) after your name then the people who normally pontificate about such things will ignore it.

The issue is that the left makes it a big deal for others, then does it themselves.

According to some of the women here, if you're considered hot or handsome, it won't be a problem.

And if you're one of the posters, she'll say politicians need to be held to a higher standard when it comes to blackface - only to completely reverse herself when she's a fangirl.

So hypocritical and I still haven't gotten a reply to the two posts asking her about this.

point taken. but i could never pull off a believable impression of a liberal candidate anyway. i can't hear most the their favorite 'intersectional' terms without my eyes rolling involuntarily.

My favorite part is that he admits to doing it 3 times but says he might have done it more but 'doesn't recall how many'. lol
