1. But it's someone else's fault.

I've started hitting back at the morons online. Hated doing it before because if you get tired and give up, they think they've won. I'm hammering back so hard, most of them stop. One guy hit me with "You're an idiot". I told him at least he didn't say "YOUR an idiot." I asked him "Remember when your hero said if Biden was elected, the markets would crash 'like we've never seen'? Remember that? Did the markets crash under Biden? Aren't they crashing now?"

But what's happening now has turned into a national crisis, and this is something none of us can avoid - every single American is negatively affected by TFG's anti-democratic actions now. And this has always been his motivation, but he's doubled down since day #1 and he has yet to be held to account. Hang in there!
