49. "I wish these two would go away like two bad pennies."
Fri Aug 28, 2020, 10:20 AM
Aug 2020

I think that's a pretty strong statement. I offered a different perspective on that notion I hope you will consider. I simply contend that almost 4 years of pro-Democratic /anti trump rhetoric on a national stage far outweighs a few months of bad judgment. For this campaign, and for this election, they are on our side, but I understand that there are times when it's hard to let go of something. Yours is Mika brzezinski's criticisms of Hillary Clinton. Well, I'll admit I've got one too. No matter how popular she gets among Democrats, I will never forgive or support, Randi "Hillary Is A Fucking Whore" Rhodes. Hillary Clinton, in my eyes, is a national treasure, and would have been one of the best presidents this country has ever seen.
