good, i like second chances, but roseanne bar, has he as history of doing these kinds of things. but i think people should be aware that this kind of things adds to the disquiet among conservatives and there is a double standard. if i had to make the argument, i would say well a white person calling a black person an ape is different than a woman calling i could do all that stuff, but in doing that, i m just feeding into the narrative, that we re just feeding into e the i think people need to be very, very consistent. it not fair to people across the country and it s certainly not fair to ivanka trump. if it becomes a pattern, she could go. van had a lot of good points there, and i m glad to hear you denounce the der ribl language and the terrible comments. i don t know what s going on this week, it s like crazy week. it s definitely a week that needs to be over. it i m not going to get into
