Bartiromo started college at C. W. Post before transferring to New York University.[10] During her college years, she worked at the same betting parlor where her mother worked.[16] She graduated from NYU’s Washington Square Campus in 1989[17] with a Bachelor of Arts in journalism and economics.[1]

So she’s an Italian American in Brooklyn who worked her way through college in the same “betting parkor” her mom worked at, which from further reading sounds like an OTB (off-track betting, they’re all over NYC and LI). I’m betting she’s been around a bunch of drunk gambling addicts which isn’t very mentally healthy, so her moral compass is probably a bit broken, and Trump acting like a mafioso all the time probably deeply appeals to her, because those are the type of people she’s grown up around, because NYC is full of Italian Americans acting like they’ve got mob connections, especially when they don’t.

“Trump on acid?”

“No, I said ‘Trump in acid.’”

He’s still a shit head, he just probably thinks this will limit corporate money to Dems, plus most of the Republican party takes donations from shady or compromised sources like the NRA, so it doesn’t hurt them as much to limit corporate contributions.

Because kings have to have serfs and slaves, and all the yokels think they’re going to wind up the kings, they’re wrong.

No dummy, this type of shit is exactly what increases domestic violence, spousal rape, and spousal murder.

Time to grow the fuck up and realize a wife isn’t a sex doll combined with a domestic servant.

If this is your religion telling you this then fuck your religion, and any other religion that offers abusive lines of thinking like this.

So kidnapping and imprisonment is what marriage is to you?

Marriage is a pact based on love and partnership, what you’re suggesting is slavery.

You got some major incel vibes going on bro, time to take yourself to a licensed mental health professional.

People shouldn’t be forced to be trapped in their shitty marriages if they don’t want to be, and not everyone needs a reason to fall out of love, or to realize they were never in love, sometimes it just happens, love is just brain chemistry and the focus of that love tends to change over your lifetime, so divorces shouldn’t need to be proven, all a divorce should need is one side calling it quits on the marriage, and we all should learn to respect that.

That’s some real “using a sharpy to correct a hurricanes path” energy Puty…

These fuckers want their Gilead.

Caville as the Kurgen?

I now owe my soul to the company store…

In the context of my post wouldn’t that make her a bit ahead of her time, considering she was raised in a politically conservative Illinois family?

I mean by all means get triggered by Hillary Clinton because she lives rent free in your head but realistically Hillary had nothing to do with this post, and in this context being a “Goldwater girl” isn’t a negative, especially when you remember that we’re taking about the 60’s here.

Lamest possible response, even if a joke.

Homer looks more excited to be stoned

Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they’re sure trying to do so, it’s going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can’t and won’t compromise. I know, I’ve tried to deal with them.

What a dickhead response, real humanitarian right there.

I’ve got a raging clue!

What you’re asking about is a much larger issue than even the MAGAts have anything to do with, but the people behind the MAGAts are definitely responsible for, overall the country is a mess because of internal and external forces working together to make it so, and decades of planning by the American Right wing, as well as the worsening conditions that these people have ignored, such as climate change, income inequality, and many other issues that are the culmination of decades of ignorance and exploitation.

Also a lot of the problem has nothing to do with Trump’s Qult and everything to do with the class warfare being waged on us by the greedy upper class, we’re battling through inflation, shrinkflation, enshittification, and a whole variety of other things that are ultimately the fault of the wealthy and their political and corporate proxies.

Ultimately Trump may be part of the wealthy class but he’s their tool, their shepherd to the racist ultra conservative Libertarian land that they’ve dreamed of ever since the first time they imagined themselves as John Galt after reading Atlas Shrugged, this is why Trump is funded by Ruzzia, but more importantly by the Mercers and other conservative American billionaires.
