... in scope that it is difficult to comprehend the damages."

Yup! A long time ago in a little town in N.W. PA our next door neighbor (very middle class neighborhood)
was the county D.A. and his brother was Ray Shafer who was the governor of the state. A better man you
would ever meet. He liked playing with the kids in the neighborhood, he supported education, civil rights,
infrastructure, the environment, unions, and he was republican too. Those days are long gone.

Dwight Eisenhower would have had no time for w, Cheney, Trump, Bill Barr, or the right wing snake oil
salesmen who are "Christian Evangelical Pastors." And the idea so many republicans are so willing to
work with and be owned by Vlad Putin would have made Ike livid.
