and try to stop being so nasty to and about Trump supporters.

You might have to put me on a clock.

ETA: I'm an utter failure at this. Unless Don Jr and Ron Johnson don't count.

I will just go about my way and ignore their lunacy. Some of them are dangerous and should not be ignored, but most don’t want a situation that becomes hot. There are simply to many problems that must be solved to waste brain cells and emotional energy on Magats.

I have no desire to be aggressive so I won’t be out trying to be difficult.

But I have no patience to put up with their bullshit either.

Ian willing to be gracious in winning if they can be dignified in defeat. I’m not holding my breath.

Too many fascist seditionists. Not until the cancer is excised. I’ll normalize them when they begin to behave normally.

I'm nowhere near ready to make that transition; however, I do expect and demand that our next AG pursue ALL trump & Co's crimes.
