Something abusers say

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE HATERS AND THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA! 2019 WILL BE A FANTASTIC YEAR FOR THOSE NOT SUFFERING FROM TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME. JUST CALM DOWN AND ENJOY THE RIDE, GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING FOR OUR COUNTRY!

“Just calm down and enjoy the ride” is some rapey shit right there.

8. Williams also refused to release his income tax returns
Tue Jan 1, 2019, 11:16 AM
Jan 2019

and then:

The 1990 Texas election was days away, and the Republican front-runner was a millionaire known mostly for his money and his mouth.

Finally, a reporter asked again about his income taxes, and Clayton Williams blurted: “I’ll tell you when I didn’t pay any income tax, was 1986.”

The headlines the next day were published in big, stark letters: “Williams Didn’t Pay ’86 Taxes.” The next week, Democrat Ann Richards came from 5 points down to win the 1990 Texas governor’s race.

for this country, would be for tRump to be frog-marched out of the WH in handcuffs. THAT will be GREAT. I hope Mueller has enough evidence of election tampering, plus Russian money accepted to crucify McConnell, too. He is the fly in the ointment, refusing hearings on any of the bad stuff. He needs to go.

NOT EVEN ONE DAY...!!!!!!!!!

Why doesn't Mr. Trump just take a day off from the tweeting about anything.. Or just two sentences like, "Happy New Year to everyone.!!! Best wishes for a happy and healthy new year.

Why can't he just shut up and find something else to do for one day or even a weekend? Why can't he just tweet a holiday greeting like you noted above? He always has to slam somebody "the haters and losers". It's so juvenile. He is not a normal, healthy person. The man is seriously fucked up and should be in a mental institution.

Just let him do his thing and it will be better that way. Sweaty pig.

He has no idea but the worm has turned. The next year is going to be an eye opener for that bastard. I have a sneaking suspicion he won’t be compliant and docile. See how ya like being in that position, you rat bastard.

...he’d have gotten a call to report to HR, and the most likely outcome would be an escort off the premises, Any personal effects in his office/workspace/cubicle/locker would be boxed up for him.

Your attitude during this course should be the same as your attitude during rape--just lie back and enjoy it(!!)

I'd never before heard anything like this from a prof. (It was a course I was auditing during the summer while I was home from college.)
