13. I'm tired

Mon May 9, 2022, 09:34 PM

May 2022

Of a political system that is composed of 2 parties, 1 who seems to want equality, fairness, bent on improving the lives of all citizens …
And the other that wants to burn it all down, shrink government to a size that it can be drowned in a bathtub …
It’s no longer the same game, same playing field, same rules …
My gut tells me something very soon is going to BLOW , and it’s not going to be pretty … and I’m really, really tired of waking each day to a new atrocity from the opposing party hellbent on the destruction as their Hail Mary play
