I've not been able to stand her, especially her stance on guns. If she could only apply this same righteousness to the gun problem. In this case, she’s clearly correct to take a stance against the victimization of children, yet she has to know that the statistics are clear that firearms are now the leading cause of death among children ages 1 to 17 in the U.S. All I can figure is that she, or someone close to her, has been a victim of sexual abuse, since the MEpublicans are only outraged when something affects them personally. Sorry, I may be jaded beyond repair at this point.

They seemed to appreciate her standing with them.

I think this is good. The Democrats won't change any MAGA minds, but it's possible MTG and these victims will.

Not that the G.O.P. gives a shit.

G.O.P. just keeps lying, and dodging.
