Dec 2017

it was a crime. Not an election.

Now what do we do with that?

Let the assholes who committed and conspired this crime receive benefit from it.

I don’t think so.

We must demand a correction. What that is I am not sure. But no party gets to benefit from the crime.

I think a new election is best. And everything goes back to where it was until that is completed.
