Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.

Too bad, so sad. The way people have been voting with their pocketbooks during this election cycle has been amazing.

It's ignoring them, along with any sense of decency. I hope someone is keeping good records of those who ordered and those performed these acts. When the time comes, "I was just following orders" will not be an acceptable defense.

While watching one amazing ad from TLP, I ran across another from Meidas Touch in the responses.

I missed this one when it first came out. In case you missed it too, here's the ad on YouTube. It incorporates part of a stirring Democratic National Convention Keynote speech given in 1976 by one of the most amazing women who ever served this country: Barbara Jordan. Enjoy!

People have known for years. Why is he still in heading Commerce, much less still walking around free?

Finally, and it felt so good to get it done.

Signs on entering the building required masks, no electioneering or campaigning, no political clothing/hats allowed. There was a steady stream of people coming and going by ones and twos, but no waiting. Communal cup of pens (*bzzt*) for signing paperwork but plenty of hand sanitizer available. I wore gloves.

For all the care taken to move from the usual room to another larger room, the extra space was not effectively used. Half a dozen machines were available, but they were not spaced six feet apart or staggered into separate rows. The check-in table and machines were all crammed to the side of the room, leaving most of the normal furniture (large tables at the front for city council, rows of chairs for attendees) unmoved. People, what was the point? 🤦‍♀️

Voting was easy, my ballot registered everything as I wanted and printed fine, and it went into the box and showed I was voter number 6,654. Whee! More hand sanitizer and a sticker were offered on the way out. My gloves and I declined the sanitizer but kept the sticker. I came home and put on my new favorite t-shirt, woohoo!

I know the first thought is, "they brought it on themselves," but there are elderly who may not make it out of this alive.

I do have some sympathy for them, idiots they may be. I don't know why, but I see the deplorables as a continuum, from the militia jerks who could fall off a cliff tomorrow and I wouldn't even bother to wave goodbye, to some of the older ones who may still be deluded that they are dealing with a garden variety Repub. I think they're horrendously out of touch at best, but that's no reason to die like this. Silly me, but there you go.

eta - and there's no excuse for this happening. trump and his campaign staff are completely on the hook for it.

The whole article is worth a read, if you can stand it.

regarding a political opponent. "Oh, that wasn't what I really meant" is not a defense. toddler in chief needs to chill.

is to mean anything ever again. Time for an independent investigation and Special Counsel. It doesn't matter if no one has managed to nail trump for his crimes before now. The time for that has come as well.
