"She's black and a woman."
This from my hair stylist who voted for Trump. Must admit I was crowing about how well Democrats did in the Midterm Elections.
"No, Oprah Winfrey is unqualified to be president," I replied. "Do you think I'm dumb?" I asked pointedly.
"No," she replied.
"The implication is that...."
"There's NO implication!" she replied, cutting me off.
"What you implied is..."
"THERE'S NO IMPLICATION!" she thundered, not letting me finish. Repeat.
Her implication was that Democrats would vote for any minority woman, regardless of qualifications. That's insulting and reminds me of Republican, racist dog whistles.
"I don't want to argue with you," I finally said. "Please stop."
In the past, we agreed to disagree. There's no arguing with Trump supporters.
Is voting In another tv personality really a good idea. It was funny the first time let's not push it.
