Wednesday

I went out to eat recently with my husband and son. An older, white gentleman seated across from us with a younger woman went on and on about how Trump is wrecking this country. He ranted nearly the whole meal about high prices, poor treatment of immigrants, destroying our farms and small businesses, and how all Trump does is lie. I live in Missouri, and to hear this while out and about was a surprise, but a really nice one. I think you are right, Quiet Em, everyone is sick to death of Trump!
