Sound Off for May 26, 2016

For once ...

OK the election is over. Take your signs up.

Subjugated class

Aging white men, losing power, support Trump. When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.

Having Hillary state she needs Bill to be in charge of the economy is an insult to all the successful women out there who did it on their own.
