31. Things happen for a reason
Wed Aug 25, 2021, 02:41 PM
Aug 2021

Had Hillary won, it would have been non-stop investigations, negative press and a continuation of the relentless rw attacks of the last 40 years. She would not have been able to govern.

With Trump, while he was awful, the backlash gave us the trifecta of Biden and a Dem House and Senate. This led to the most sweeping progressive agenda since FDR's New Deal.

Think about it.
