    Fucking WHAT?! Wow.

    Ok. I won’t make jokes about someone’s name. I’ll leave that to Trump and conservatives at large who judge people based on 2nd grader standards.

      Nimrata (Gurmukhi: ਨਿਮਰਤਾ nimaratā) is an important virtue that is vigorously promoted by Gurbani and Sikh history. The literal translation of this Punjabi word is “Humility”, or “Benevolence”.

      You can say she’s given up pretending to be benevolent.
