2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

The funny part is that a very large number of successful lawyers failed the bar.

Maybe we should get Donald to release his SAT scores and college transcripts. Let's see if he has any basis for complaint. I bet his scores are lower than hers.

He has scores?

Trump shouldn’t be talking about someone else’s once failed bar exam, which she then passed and went on to edge out everyone else in her line of work. He’s has so many failed, bankrupt and fraudulent businesses.

Moreover, Trump failed as a president because of his inadequate response to Covid 19. Hundreds of thousands of people died who didn’t have to, and some are still reeling from repercussions of long covid. Americans deserve better.

Trump's sycophant lawyers have literally been disbarred

The far right really hate people that had to work hard and deal with setbacks to get ahead. If you're not a nepo baby born with a silver spoon in your mouth, you're somehow a lesser being to them.
