5. Trump didn't change because it would save lives,

7. 'Not MY job to learn. It's YOUR job to try to put some info into my head.'

"I'm not doing YOUR job."

8. probably went something like this...

9. Instead of helping that dumbass learn

they should encourage him to go take a long vacation to get away from this all. Isolate himself and get out of the way. I hear Florida is lovely this time of year. Or New York.
