I was really ticked off. But knew I had to think about just making sure tfg never sees the WH again. I was also upset about who “they” might pick. I was glad when President Biden immediately supported VP Harris. To me that was to shutdown a lot of turmoil if it turned into a food fight. Now I’m pleasantly surprised how it’s turned out. Still will miss President Biden though. Like I’ve said before even though I don’t drink I’d love to sit around with him and have a beer. The only way I’d like to have a drink with tfg is if I got to put a ground up ghost pepper in his Diet Coke first. SS might not take it to kindly though.
