Y’All Need To Understand

When you're faced with righteous pained anger from the people you claim to lead, @RepJeffries, and you smile at them like an arrogant, entitled douchebag chiding a toddler, you make us like you less. And in case you missed the math, only 18% of us liked you before this.

You don’t have to like him.  He’s not running for President. The Democrats just have to decide if he should be Speaker. 

Unless you voted in his district, you didn’t even get to elect him.

For better or worse, this is how it works.

Though I am intrigued by this:

The crowd jeered him as his tirade dragged on for more than a minute, Newsweek reported.

Jeffries barely flinched, and when Tarlov remarked on how unbothered he seemed, he chalked it up to his roots.

“Remember, y’all, I grew up in Brooklyn,” he said.

The Golden Child spent a week at an art school in Brooklyn the summer after she graduated high school. Made a lot of friends who were charmed by her liberal use of “y’all.” When we picked her up on the last day, as she parted from them they giggled and said “Bye, y’all!” They were talking to my daughter.

So I’m surprised Jeffries knew the word is plural, never singular.

I do think he handled the protests correctly. People can yell and scream and be escorted out. People who think they’re more privileged than the rest of us, and only their opinions count…can suck it.
