However, I do believe them and appreciate their fact-checking. We can't have enough of that. Whether or not the bad blood started over that infamous Mar-A-Lago New Year's party or not, the more the merrier when it comes to piling on the Orange Idiot. To be fair to EVERYONE who gave Trump free rein, nobody took him seriously. Lesson learned, I hope.
