    Trump wasn’t going to kill him. Just steamroll him into irrelevance in his absence while the traitors tossed our government aside.

    But sure, keep voting Republican because your effing taxes will be lower and people can more easily get guns. Priorities!
    Perhaps, I don’t know what was in Mike Pence’s brain as you apparently do. He probably had several ideas about why he didn’t wish to leave. It’s just good that he did not leave.

    Voting Republican likely will lead to a brain drain for the US as talented young people take their skills and energy to better countries - for a young professional now, would not remaining in the US tarnish their brand?

    My daughter is finishing up her Ph.D. this month at Cambridge. She will almost certainly not be returning to the USA. I may go join her at some point once my elderly parents pass away. I've already "packed my two bags" in the sense that I have housing and assets secured over there.

    I counsel the young people I know to be prepared to emigrate as our rights continue to erode, but to continue to vote in the meantime.

    The planet that's never heard of the First Amendment, apparently.

    He makes me think of the Simpson's Superintendent Chalmers' observation "Good lord, the rod up that man's butt must have a rod up its butt."

    Not good for me Rob! Disgusted by these fascist republicans and lying bastards put in the supreme court by trump. Such strong language has never been uttered from my mouth. If an old biddy like me feels this way, imagine what the streets are going to be like in the days to come?
