So it was off-the-charts divisive when Hillary Clinton called some of Trump’s supporters a “basket of deplorables,” but I guess this is okay:
The story linked to in that tweet appears to have gone *poof*, but here’s the background, from The Virginian-Pilot:
A private Facebook post by a Virginia Wesleyan University dean has gone public, creating a firestorm at the university.
It wasn’t so much that Paul Ewell asked all Biden voters to “unfriend” him. After such an emotional election; people on both sides have done plenty of that.
But Ewell, a business professor and dean of the university’s Global Campus, called anyone who voted for Biden “ignorant, anti-American and anti-Christian” and accused them of corrupting not only the election but “our youth … our country.”
Hey, I understand having an emotional reaction to a result you find appalling. In 2016 I was removing Facebook friends like cactus spines from my ass. But it’s one thing for a private citizen to go off on Facebook and it’s another for an alleged pr*sident to endorse the marginalization of a majority of the country he’s supposedly leading.
But I guess it’s okay when a Republican does it.
Here’s Ewell’s entire post:
So Trump’s not done dividing us, that’s for sure. The next 60-plus days promise to be a real adventure. Buckle in. Our pilot has polished off the travel-sized vodka bottles and is now huffing hydraulic fluid. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind: YOU LOST!
