We are spending time talking about it instead of the death rate, the lack of testing, the stolen (excuse me, confiscated) PPEs, the post office, Jared Kushner, and on and on.

That is a lot of distractions for one thing we should be worried about...
My dad had been telling me all along too that that's what Trump has been trying to do is distract everyone away from what he is actually doing behind closed doors.

He also slashed the blue book sometime ago for disability and left it up to the doctors to decide whether or not a person can get disability, so a lot of people are being denied and told to work until they can't move anymore (or worse.. as my husband already can barely move)

So Mitch put him up to this.


But hey, Mitch, you yourself said we shouldn't confirm a judge during an election year!
