I take no pleasure in today's events.

That said, I hold on to a glimmer of hope.

If there is justice in this world, today will prove to my fellow Americans that the Republican Party doesn't give a rip-roaring, flying, mortar-forking shit about anyone but the very, very rich. And the Russians.

They don't. They never have. A dull-normal Richie Rich sociopath convinced them it would be barrels of fun to give the finger to the rest of the country - while ensuring they would get screwed as bad as the rest of us.

I have hope that a few people will wake up. Hope I'm right. Just my .02.

All polls say sanity will win by 25 points at least.

Hope people vote and vote for the free world.
