Anyone else wear their mask and get a little thrill to trigger covidiots?

I live in the deep south and get "the look" from the dumbasses who don't get it. So far I haven't had anything said to me and I don't know what my response would be if I did. But I hope I'm getting to them a little. Yeah, it's petty, but it's the little things that make life sweet.

In defending Paul Gosar, Republicans show just how scared they are

What does it say about a political party that defends a member as toxic and repulsive as Paul Gosar?

What does it say that 207 of the 210 Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives — including the other three from Arizona, Andy Biggs, Debbie Lesko and David Schweikert — stood in defense of a man who last week tweeted an animated video that depicted his avatar violently slaying one of his political opponents and congressional colleagues?

What does it say that only two Republicans in Congress spoke out against Gosar’s actions and saw through his defense of “it was only a joke, lol” to denounce his violent rhetoric?

The sad truth is that it says exactly what we already know: Today’s GOP is not the party of moral character and truth that it once pretended to be — that I believed it was for much of the time I was a registered Republican voter — but is instead a cesspool of amorality that is driven by fear.
