foisted :
impose an unwelcome or unnecessary person or thing on. Had to look that one up


Seems she got the support of like minded people ... now shes trying to put as much distance between Her and Them

“I want to start by addressing my commentary at the top of last night’s show,” she said. “A message to those who are distorting my views, including all white nationalists and especially one racist freak whose name I will not even mention. You do not have my support, you don’t represent my views and you are antithetical to the beliefs I hold dear.”


Thats a hard genie to put back in the bottle ... once its out

is what she said racist? is the shift that concerns her, racial or cultural?

i use that congressional candidate from queens as a great example. not long ago, anyone espousing those idiotic ideas would have been a laughingstock. now she’s going to congress. look at san francisco. maybe people who lived there 30 years ago, wouldn’t recognize that city today, ankle deep in needles and feces and rents that no one can afford.

it’s possible, probable in my mind, that this is the cultural shift she was referring to. and if certain ethnicities tend to embrace that culture, i join laura in being concerned about there being too many of thise people. but it’s not about skin color, it’s about culture.

I use Corey Stewart from Virginia as a great example. Anyone exposing those idiotic views would have been a laughing stock years ago now he seems to be the standard-bearer for the Republican Party. In the recent special election all the candidates who agreed with her could not get elected on the left.

He and his white nationalism certainly rile up the right to get out and vote and our president so yes he is the standard Bearer. Just because you're infatuated with her doesn't mean she's the standard Bearer as the results of last week votes clearly showed.

please show me the evidence that white nationalists have a big impact in republican voting. why did all of the republicans cheer low black unemployment at the SOTU, and why were all the democrats miserable at the news?

Because it made them feel like they were winning, the same reason you bring it up all the time. The Democrats weren't miserable about low unemployment that is another lie of yours.
