But let’s get back to the basic differences, and then talk DSA insanity and after-election-day dirty tricks to make a solid case on why you need to vote — and vote for the sane choices on the ballot.

There are two types of people in the world. Don’t be the wrong type.

I voted for sanity, this morning. But, I did it in Oregon, so it’s an uphill battle.

The GOP would be on it’s way to extension without President Trump, and they are still lame.

I say

“Where would you like the mosque built in your town?”

I'm going to vote (this time), but the side I am supposed to vote for seems to be perfectly fine with whatever schemes the Democrats are cooking up. I don't think there is as much difference between these parties as is claimed.
