Let's test you and see if you can think for yourself.

Read the Big Pimpin lyrics by Jay Z and tell us which is worse and which would reach more young men.

Let's see if you can override what the DNC has instructed you to believe.

Hillary is up on stage with Jay Z who sings extremely misogynistic songs. Why is that ok? Why aren't they protesting the real preachers of disrespect?

Oh, that's right, most of them aren't Republicans.
Because those musicians don't play a role in crafting government policy.

President Trump does. And his words during the campaign don't reflect a man who understands the challenges women face.

You're going to test me. Arrogant, much?

I'm unclear how the poster felt these two things were equal.


A musician does NOT = governing.

So, you believe Trump is going to pass an "its legal to grab p***y" law while millions of young men are going to listen to Jay Z and think "oh, that's just wrong".

If you can't figure out which sends the greater message and impacts more people, I might as well be trying to convince you the moon isn't made of cheese, because you refuse to use logic.

It is your logic that is faulty.

While you may be a big fan of JayZ, the fact is that many people couldn't even tell you who he is. But very few Americans are unaware of who their President is today. Greater message?

How many laws did Bill Clinton pass making so there was no recourse for sexual harassment? Why didn't he run out and push such laws? If you believe Trump is going to pass misogynistic laws because he was talking dirty about a groupie, why doesn't that apply to Bill who was essentially a sexual predator who paid nearly a million dollars because he perved out when he sexually harassed a state employee?

I guess it's the same logic you use to believe lyrics don't impact young men who idolize those who sing those lyrics.

Have you always been at war with logic?
