Maggie HaberWOAT spending the final days before this pivotal election...

A. Breaking riveting stories

or

B. Lecturing liberals about denouncing Louis Farrakhan?

If you guessed A, you don’t know Mags.

Also Farrakhan is a vocal Trump supporter. She’s a ****ing moron and everything wrong with journalism.

That is not at all what I said.

To see she is in fact just a pedestrian scam artist is a bit disappointing.

The only right winger who is actually trying to convince left leaning people from a position of empathizing with them is Ross Douthat. The rest of them write trolly hammer to the head type of pieces that try to bamboozle the naive.

i mean, gay people can be racist too. tons of idiots of all stripes in this country

i actually ran into a couple of black trump supporters over the mic while i was playing call of duty on ps4 earlier this morning. was pretty hilarious actually, they were just a couple of degenerate hoodrats who had tremendous respect for trump's commitment to the hustle (corruption/tax evasion is just a natural part of it). and he gets bitches.

also poker is all luck, play blackjack or shoot dice for real maneys
