I can reasonably expect to live at least another thirty years and I have to watch everything I’ve worked for be taken away. My kids are terrified at the prospect of the straight up oncoming fascism.

Yeah, President Carter will go to his grave with this but we actually have to live with it.

He’s the lucky one.
