Do you think we shouldn't be able to call people dicks too?
Says in the article he makes calls to heads of states or holds somewhat secretive meetings during executive time.
Not saying Obamas was similar, I just want to see comparisons in which there was none from what i saw.
What is the definition of executive time? I mean sure it can be his time to himself or it could be really anything
Just because he is efficient with his time doesn't make him lazy. He's accomplished more in two years than Obama did in eight years while spending most of his time on the golf course or hate watching CNN. That is a testament to how strong of a leader he is.
Why is it so hard for people to give up gendered slurs? "oh noes! I can't use one slur! Whatever shall I do? It's not like the english language has many, many slurs I could be using instead, I have to use this one, and only this one forever, till the end of time! Why is Sandstar being such a meanie, and asking me to use a different slur?!"
Next time I'll use "orange mushroomdicked tub of lard" m'kay?
But in the meantime let's here your thoughts on Easy D's executive time.
Nah. It's his Twitter time.
Uggghhhh. Americans (i'm assuming you are) really need to pull your collective heads out of your arses, when it comes to this word. Whenever somebody uses it, you act like they committed a fucking war crime.Why is it so hard for people to give up gendered slurs? "oh noes! I can't use one slur! Whatever shall I do?

Is it a harsh word ? Yes. But Christ, get your priorities in order.
Also. Some of us who use it aren't from the U.S. And it doesn't have the same taboo as it does there. So please stop trying to impose your cultural norms on the rest of us.
Sorry if i went a bit too harsh on you. It's just i'm so fucking sick of this. Every time it's used on this forum, regardless of who it's directed at. People complain.
Again, sorry. I truly am.
I explained why.Someday, maybe I'll understand why asking people not to use gendered slurs is such an imposition. Not today, tho.
Ohh god, does he ?Doesn't Trump like watching TV shows about Sharks exclusively or something like that?
That's what i was trying to explain.For most English speaking countries outside of North America, cunt is just another swear word, used regardless of gender, a lot of the time it's a term of endearment.
It was known. Just not how badly it truly was.Lazy cunt. I thought this was known, maybe not the exact breakdown but I remember reading that the majority of his days are executive playtime.

It's a big deal to me. Because i'm not American, and you're trying to force your cultural view of that word onto me.I know why you use it. I don't understand why it's a big deal for me to ask you not to.

As chalkitdown said.
"For most English speaking countries outside of North America, cunt is just another swear word, used regardless of gender, a lot of the time it's a term of endearment."
Wait what? Lazy is a slur now? Geez, I can't keep up these days.
As i'm trying to explain to you. It's not a slur here.I'm sorry asking you to not use one slur is such an imposition on you.
"Executive time" is the euphemism his staff use to describe the large amounts of time Trump spends every day watching tv and tweeting.
This is well known from multiple insider reports.
I figure it's also the best opportunity for them to get him railed up on adderall before the next meeting or "policy time".
- Former chief of staff John Kelly introduced the concept of Executive Time because the president hated being locked into a regular schedule.
- "He's always calling people, talking to people," a senior White House official told us. "He's always up to something; it's just not what you would consider typical structure."
Not to defend him, but my understanding was that it also included him screaming at people in person and on the phone and not just TV 'n twitter.
Below quote is from the axios article.

We already know that for Trump "executive time" means watching cable news.
"Sims recounts one time when (Paul) Ryan was in the Oval Office explaining the ins and outs of the Republican health-care bill to the president. As Ryan droned on for 15 minutes, Trump sipped on a glass of Diet Coke, peered out at the Rose Garden, stared aimlessly at the walls and, finally, walked out.I wonder how "active" he really is during those meetings and travel anyway?
Surely he's on his phone or just staring off during some parts of those meetings.
Golf carts aren't fast. He has to be driven from the residence to the elevator, and then to the Oval Office.
Thank you for understanding.As an American who would never consider that word an option when speaking to another American, I also would never try to enforce our feelings of it on countries where it's used commonly.
I can understand why someone would be upset at that word's use, but I also respect that it's not the same context elsewhere.
That pisses me off, more than it should.
