So many things horribly wrong with that especially with the Camp Fire

-- said my mother (76), the Trump voter, trying to justify herself shortly after the election.

I personally think that character determines how one does the job.

Mom and I aren't speaking, now. It's as if she tries to be an asshole just to see if my brother (49) and I (54) will put up with it ... and I just can't do it anymore. My brother continually proves he's a better man than me.
