Quigley Compares What Happened To Yovanovitch To 'A Really Bad Reality TV Show' | MSNBC

    1. 2010 HD rofl I always look at him and wonder why he looks unshowered , unkept, and never professional? No jacket? Usually the same nasty shirt and tie. He represents the republicans of today.

    2. @Dyane Leblanc I said that on another comment!!Invest in a suit! At least a jacket and tie! At least that will take the attention away from his face.

    1. Alex Mitchell : I don’t think the OP was trying to be sexist; in fact, I suspect they felt they were being quite complimentary to the ambassador, and very insulting to Trump. However, the comment is sexist because saying that she is “more of a man” than Trump supports and perpetuates the sexist views that, A) “being a man” has set societal expectations that women are not usually capable of fulfilling; B) that when a woman does something to show that she is strong and capable—as is perfectly within the boundaries of human nature as a whole—it is not a feminine trait, but a “manly” one; and C) that if a man shows “feminine” qualities (such as not being strong and competent in a leadership role), that they are somehow less of a man than they would be otherwise.

    2. Burger WithEverything : While I agree with you that the comment is sexist, I don’t think the OP said it with the intention of repeating sexist tropes. Indeed, such comments are so deeply entrenched in our culture (and many others), that many people repeat them without ever realizing the deep implications of such a statement, and/or how it would be insulting to both women and men. I don’t think it helps your cause to assume that the OP meant it as a sexist attack, as they clearly hold the ambassador in high regard. Politely calling it out and explaining *why* it’s sexist works much better than just insulting people and leaving it at that. Some people will think you’re being “too sensitive” no matter which route you take, but when you offer rational explanations for why you feel someone is wrong, people are much more likely to thoughtfully consider what you have to say.

    1. Kevin Mcneil you morons can’t even communicate in full, fleshed-out statements. Truly deplorable, sickening people all of you Trumpstains are.

  1. SHE IS TELLING TRUTH, AND THE REPUBLICANS ARE INTERFERING WHILE SHE SPEAKS. BUT IT IS NOT WORKING THANK GOD.

  2. Another American patriot follow the rules and law and report corrupt in government and the republican and Trump saying no we don’t follow the rules and law when the power and money in that ?.

    1. @claudemiropacheco just another clown in town how come almost 20 of his crew got indicted how come snow was found guilty wake up son get down from the moon before is to late.

    2. Kevin Mcneil how many people in the Obama administration went to jail did Obama hide his taxes did Obama pay hush money to a pornstar did Obama ask foreign governments to help him get dirt on John McCain I’ll wait

  3. How many careers has trump ruined including all that are in his cult? The number keeps rising! He’s a wrecking ball swinging wild all over this Nation!

    1. @Rider you didnt elect him you are in the minority the people voted for Clinton … Dot dot dot … The electoral college placed trump. I suggest a civics class but since you obvious graduated from Trump U it wouldn’t work.

  4. Shocking treatment of an honest hardworking American Woman on the frontline fighting corruption in Ukraine is a Scandal and without any doubt grounds for impeachment and removal from Office…

  5. I want to watch the ending again where someone protests against Schiff’s end note. What a wonderful example of powerstruggle, glad that Schiff follows procedure.

  6. I’ll take Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill one step further, Tyrant Trump’s presidency is like a really bad reality TV show.

    “So Sad.”
