The Ocean Is Rising In Florida

I visited my 91 year old golfing buddy in the nursing home today. His daughter was there, she is a fiery Democrat. Can't repeat everything she said about TSF.

She and her husband live in Melbourne Florida, they both agree Gore really won Florida,

OK, down to business, I asked her about the rising ocean, She says over the years it is really noticeable in her neighbor's yard, the swing set keeps getting closer and closer to the ocean. I said, global warming is fake, she laughed and said it's why we come to Pa. for the summer but lately there isn't a whole lot of difference.

I have been working on my 91 year old golfing buddy about how evil TSF is, he told me JFK was the last Democrat he voted for. So I flat out asked him, you're not voting for Trump are you, he surprised the shit out of me and said no, but I'm not voting for Biden either.

He is a full blown Magat who is not voting for TSF.

Going to bed thinking good thoughts about that, every vote counts.

hopefully enough Trump voters from the past have had enough. To me, a Trump voter in the past that is now a no-vote for Trump is a good thing. Can't make them vote for Biden but if they don't vote for Trump it's a good day.
