The Liberty Memorial was dedicated “in honor of those who served in World War One in defense of liberty and our country.” It remains today as this nation’s only major memorial and museum specializing in the Great War of 1914-1918.

A Biden campaign appearance and long lines to attend it are not usually things that go hand in hand. Are you sure Bloomberg didn't pay them all each a C-note to go???

But seriously, that is a real good sign. Probably doubtful Joe can defeat Fuhrer Drumpf in Mizzou but that can wait for now.

The old white guy Trumpers in the local barber shop are strangely silent and were asking me (a known Democrat) a lot of questions about viruses (aka the retired teacher).

was in St Louis. Left there long ago but I think it's gotten worse since then. Or maybe it's just because I wasn't into politics at all at the time and/or things weren't that polarized back then.

I hope you told your barbershop pupils that only folks who vote for Trump can get coronavirus.
