1. I agree with him

I don't want anything to upset the apple cart in my state. Murphy, the Assembly, and the Senate are focused on expanding health care and protecting the right to abort in our state. I don't want 'regressives' in Mississippi having the tiniest sliver of opportunity to tell us what to do with our money.

We are nothing like them, never will be, they can come together with us in 2020 (they won't) -

But the Mississippi State flag will still not be flown in Liberty State Park.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
