Go peddle your woe is me bullshit somewhere else. Your nihilism and defeatism is anti American and makes me sick.
I've been listening to conservative talk radio, and voting Republican, for forty years. Look where that's gotten us.
I remember when Reagan declared "Morning in America." Yet over these past forty years, things have steadily worsened. Reagan and Trump slowed the decline, but America is way worse than when I was a kid.
You call it nihilism and defeatism. I call it realism.
