It may not last long term, but you've made your point and not condoned the inexcusable.<br /><br />Sigh, indeed, dkzody.

It's infuriating...I agree she's an enabler. It's infuriating listening to her defend him. I love my dad, but I will not defend his bigotry. My dad also knows me well enough to know I WILL call him out on it. What's funny about my dad is that he doesn't show his bigotry to the world--I see it behind closed doors. Really bothers me too. <br /><br />These people, including Ivanka, defending him are no better than he is. Not calling people out means you condone it and are just as guilty. I know that doesn't seem fair, but one needs to step-up and say it's wrong. No one is doing that in Trump's instance. He goes off unfettered. No one close to him is calling him out. And Melania defending his crap the other night on CNN really infuriated me. Maybe that's Trump's whole problem. No one close to him calls him out. They are all yes people and don't dare confront him. That could be why he thinks it's acceptable too. All his life, he's been this coddled whiner. <br /><br />Being President of the United States requires someone who isn't a whiner, can take the good with the bad and accepts that they make mistakes. They need to be able to negotiate and compromise. No one tells Trump he's wrong and I wish someone would. <br /><br />Sadly, I don't think this is going to be Ivanka or anyone else close to him. And everyone else is a loser. <br /><br /><br /><br />Megan xxxMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622415628314992252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546626959391412613.post-2567246626992026262016-10-19T07:17:08.305-07:002016-10-19T07:17:08.305-07:00If she is anything like my husband and his sibling...If she is anything like my husband and his siblings, it won't matter. They just say you can't change the person and go their way letting the parental unit do as she pleases. Sigh.
