Now that all free media is gone, now that all free speech is gone, who wishes they had kept their mouth shut

Eight years ago instead of trashing Hillary Clinton?

I can think of at least one politician but one especially that I wish had.

How much progress we could have made on so many fronts.

It’s actually depressing how shitty things got over the last 9 years.

It’s so dumb to throw everything away for no reason.

We saw the same thing happened last year too.

Lies, revisionist history. Never a shred of proof, all BS. Next candidate for president will be attacked with same lies, shave off just enough votes in swing states.

Taking a life-long do-gooder middle class midwestern Methodist who devoted her life to fighting for the civil rights, especially for women and children, and constructed a fictional monster that they taught their followers to despise and fear. "Solidarity, brothers and sisters" my ass. Still going around claiming liberal Democratic issues that have always been Democratic issues are unknown and radical to Democrats and Only I Can Save You.
