Poll: Trump Turns Liberals Into Fat Drunks as Democrats Are More Likely to Eat Their Feelings, Drink
By Townhall. A recently released YouGov poll has found that due to political anxieties, Democrats are more likely to “eat their feelings” and drink more than their Republican counterparts. However, these same people were also more likely to exercise to reduce stress associated with politics as well.
According to a poll commissioned by the Daily Burn and conducted by YouGov, “Democrats are 50% more likely than Republicans to say they’re eating their feelings as a result of the current political climate.” But they were also 40% more likely to exercise.
Likewise, the report shows that “political pain points have been driving Dems to drink more, at a 2-to-1 ratio over their counterparts in the GOP.”
The same poll also found that Democrats, Republicans, and Independents alike have admitted that events in the news have caused them to use more social media and binge-watch TV on platforms such as Netflix since 2016. However, even here Democrats were more likely to use social media at 59% Democrats and 52% Republicans admitting to increased usage. The numbers were similar for binge-watching TV at 57% and 50%.

Liberals Only Care About Sexism When It’s Convenient
By The Hill. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) and 176 Democrat members of Congress have sponsored a bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) that removes the references to women.
“Children, youths, and adults” are replacing the wording “women and children.” What to make of this? Confusion about what gender means now that “male and female” are being removed from the liberal agenda? Acquiescence to an activist, identity politics that seeks to elevate fluid gender perceptions above biological sex? It’s a travesty women would no longer be the focus of the Violence Against Women Act.
The left’s double speak around sexism seems only a matter of convenience. Think about it. Capitol Hill just endured weeks of mob protests crying out for victims of sexual abuse. The #MeToo movement is populated by women victims of sexual assault. Rep. Jackson Lee supposedly made a stand for women when she and her — dare I say female — colleagues from the House stood in protest at the Kavanaugh committee vote. As one of the “Women for Kavanaugh” sitting in front of that group of Congresswomen, I felt the animosity toward any woman not on their side — as if our voices were illegitimate.
Vulnerable women in the halls of the Hart Senate Building were fed extremist views that justice for survivors would be lost and “women would die” if Kavanaugh were on the court. Manipulating the pain of survivors of sexual abuse by inciting such fear is despicable and ultimately hurts women. (Read more from “Liberals Only Care About Sexism When It’s Convenient” HERE)
