Tomi Lahren: The Drama Queen

She's not all that.

Tomi Lahren: The Drama Queen
TomoNews US

For those who are unaware of who Tomi Lahren is, she is a 24-year-old who majored in political science and journalism at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. Lahren hosts her show “Tomi" on TheBlaze nightly at 7 p.m. She is very opinionated and has been described as “angry” by some viewers. Lahren speaks on her conservative opinions for different situations related to politics on her show.

Here is the issue, though. Lahren’s views are very wishy-washy, and she speaks on what she knows will get her views. She also tends to not mention where she gets facts about the people she tears apart. While I am not one to judge what views someone has or who they vote for, I will judge Lahren for her lack of credibility and views that are inconsistent for someone who has a somewhat large viewing audience. What she seems to make appealing to her viewers is that people don’t need facts, and that an opinion is enough to make someone an expert on how to deal with anything. Lahren also believes that degrading those she speaks about is an OK thing to do, which is another reason that her views are so high.

She says that she calls people out on their "bullshit", but their "bullshit" is how people go about their freedoms and beliefs in opposite ways than she does. People love drama, and Lahren is a drama lover and a drama starter.

She has said that those who did not support Donald Trump did not understand “everyday Americans” as if those who voted for anyone other than Trump aren’t everyday Americans. She speaks down to those who have different views and makes them out to be a group trying to divide the country. Lahren has also recently commented on Jill Stein’s request for a recount and acted as if a large number of Trump supporters hadn’t accused the election as “rigged.”

While she agrees that people have the freedom of speech and the freedom to protest, she forgets that that applies to everyone. She tears apart those who used their freedom of speech to bring awareness to serious issues in the country and usually tells them to “Shut up." Hypocritical, when one realizes her show is able to be aired in this country only because of that exact same freedom. There are many examples throughout many of her shows, but these are just recent highlights I felt the need to share.

Bottom line is, if you are looking for a conservative American to agree with, then Tomi Lahren is your girl. If you are looking to be entertained by the anger of a young girl speaking on politics, Tomi Lahren is your girl. I believe that Lahren is a smart girl, but she is ignorant to a lot of aspects of opposing views and how people also have the right to freedom of speech and to protest. It’s not that I don’t like Lahren because she has opposite views from me, because there a few times where I can understand where she is coming from, but it’s the way she degrades people in order to share her point.

Degrading other Americans that are acting on the same rights she has, her lack of credibility, and how she causes drama to get more views, is the reason I believe that Tomi Lahren is not as great as people may seem to believe.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
