Every time i think the US can't get any more ridiculously observationally challenged, I'm taught otherwise...

A billionaire, convicted felon, moron and over all most likely a damn pedo gets elected to be the top-clown of the clown-college.

I'm sorry for every sane murican who has to endure that. And especially for everyone that is not "normal"....

I agree with your message, but please try to avoid the r-slur. Its an ableist slur and quite triggering for many people, even if you mean it innocently.

You're totally right, sorry. And of course it wasn't meant in that way.

Appreciate you taking the feedback on board and making a change, thank you

Thanks, but I'm sorry to have had that oversight in the spur of the moment. I used that word for 40 years without much of a thought, it just stuck.

I get it - I'll take a person who uses it by mistake over someone who uses it on purpose despite knowing
