It destroyed the part of the brain housing conscience, honesty, and integrity.

But, evil and foul as he is as a human being, he won his seat in the House because people voted for him. They voted for him despite the ads taken out by his family denouncing him. They looked at that craggy gnarled face and read his resume as a lying anti-patriot and said “Wow, I want me to be represented by that in the United States Congress!”

75,000,000 Americans, in total, would have agreed but, unable to vote for Gosar, they doubled down on their desire for dishonest power-sucking and voted -- willingly and after 4 years of experiencing the creature -- for Loser-45.

And know that they are still alive. I feel for her, but attitude of trying to change him and realizing there is nothing she can do is both incredibly difficult, yet easy to understand.
