    Never in my lifetime has a leading candidate for Senate been allowed to say the last time America was great was during slavery....and get away with it. LISTEN TO ME.... This is not OK. It's deeply disturbing.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/938902718067937280 …

        I can't believe what is considered acceptable now. It makes my skin crawl to see things go backwards real far backwards. I was hoping in my lifetime I would see true equality. It had a long way to go before but NOW it's destroyed what small progress that's been made. Disgusting

        If this is who Alabama picks for representation, I see a "Boycott Alabama" on the horizon...not only for businesses but tourism as well.

        With all due respect, Alabama and tourism don’t typically go together. The boycott will essentially be just like any other day.

        The fact that you feel the need to tell people that this whole scenario is disturbing is what is really disturbing. The one thing Trump did was put the ugly out in the open weather he wanted to or not. Pretend it's not there all you want or face it. I'd rather face it.

        The African Americans and women in Alabama can stop this. They really can.

        We are still fighting the civil war. The geographic lines are not quite as clear, but the values and decency party lines are. The GOP IS the swamp.

        I didn't think it was possible to be any more repulsed by this man than I already was. I was wrong. I don't want the US to be the kind of country that elects a child molester who publicly remembers slavery w/fondness. Then I remember we elected Trump. I feel sick.
