The irony that a lady comedian would offend the "Deplorables"...

These are the times in which we live.

In reality, the Tweeter-in Chief was more vulgar with his words than the lady comedian. Granted, he did not use the "f"bomb, but his attacks were more widespread and harmful than were the comedian's comments, although she was brutal.

But it is ironic that the "Deplorables" might have been offended by the comments from the lady comedian, Michelle Wolf. There has been a lot that they have not been offended by.

But, no doubt about it, she pushed the envelope with some of her personal comments, such as the ones with Sarah Huckabee Sanders and others. Notwithstanding, they were probably deserving? It was rather obvious that she did not really care for Sarah Sanders and I'm sure, the feeling is now mutual.

How far should we go with free speech? These are deplorable times. Nobody knows what the limits are anymore?

Watching the replay of Trump's speech at his rally in Michigan, one can see much more vulgarities than that with the lady comedian.

Free speech has a lot of liberty to soar across this country.

The RWers always claim 1st Amendment and have and will claim victimhood while clinging to a Bible, guns, wrapped in the USA's flag. They can spout with lies and say it fact. Liberal/Progressives and some Moderates are always portrayed as evil and against the "good" when in reality it is a boldface lie.

Vote.
