I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

      Precisely. Life rarely gives us a perfect choice. Short-sighted idealists would rather take their ball and go home rather than facing reality, so here we are.

        Every once in a while I’ll point out that the USA had lynchings during WW2 and ask the perfectionists if the people who took weapons from the USA were enabling that terrible behavior. The mental gymnastics of the answers is mindboggling.

      I love it, Ive been seying how stupid dems who did not vote are. And every single time someone is coming to tell me, yadi yada. It’s their conviction.

      I see the german, saying, it wasn’t an ideal choice. So, we got Hitler elected. What could go wrong??

      I think with Trump, it’s much more about the grift. So, hell rob the poor and feed the rich. But maybe I’m wrong and this time around he has lot more racist and dangerous friends with him… who know. Good luck to us.

        Turned on the news this morning and found out he’s made himself the head of the Kennedy Center.

        He was too much of a coward to show up there his last term. This way he can fill the place with his lackeys and have a big party.
