32. Your drunk uncle is "weird" but he's still your uncle.

Charles Manson, Jim Jones, and Jeffrey Dahmer may have been weird, but the important truth is they were sick and evil.

We should be speaking the truth about Donald Trump. American voters, regardless of age, should be confronted with the truth. If we're too nice to bruise some feelings we're probably too nice to keep our democracy.
