Trump's Willing Victims: The Poor, Dumb Bastards of the White Working Class

About the coal mining town of Beattyville, Kentucky, whos' people think Trump is going to save their coal jobs - Last paragraph:

"But for the poor who voted for Trump, you are going to be punched in the face repeatedly by your own fists. And you'll come running to Democrats to help you, and we will, 'cause that's who the hell we are, and then you'll run right back to the racist pricks because that's just who the fuck you are: ungrateful, uneducated bastards who have been brainwashed so thoroughly that you don't realize who is stabbing you and who is trying to get your wounds healed, willing victims asking, "Please, may I have another" as the knife is twisted in your gut."

To the link for the whole essay:

They will stay with the Repubs because of a reaction to the heavy urban demonstrations.

Just watched Oklahoma City on PBS, concerning the Murrah building bombing, then I read this and I feel so much safer. White terrorism is ok.

Is this nepotism from the highest level? Of course it is, but wonder how many Trumpista's shop at Nordstrom. Interesting that her clothing line is made in China. Trumpistas would not understand this irony either.

Trump rips Nordstrom for dropping daughter’s clothing line

I am sure this will help Nordstrom rather than hurt them. Is Macy's next?

Not just Nordstrom , but a whole list of on line outlets and stores have dumped her. Neman Marcus is another and I can't remember if Macy is on the list either.
I will look for the list and post it if I can find it.

Yes the list is long and growing (and deservedly so), I believe this is the first time where he has openly criticized an outlet. And now this.

T.J. Maxx Backs Away From Ivanka Trump as President Assails Nordstrom


I am certain that headlines like these is going to get under the daddy's skin.

I am opposed to cheap shots and hostile criticism toward children of the president. However, in this case, she is part of his administration and plays a big role in the White House so, in my opinion, that makes her fair game when it comes to the criticism.
