I tried. I really did. But this "debate" is unwatchable

Trump will not shut up and Wallace does little to stop him. So I had to turn it off and look in on the MLB postseason. And the damn Yankees are slaughtering the team from Cleveland. So I'm just going to hang out here at DU for a while.

Phony Joni sends out fund raising text 10 minutes after RBG death

Nothing like opportunism. To be fair these texts may have been scheduled in advance but she could have called them off for a day or two. She didn't and that says a lot about her (lack of) character. We have to double down on our efforts to send her packing.

Ok. Now I'm fighting mad.

A couple of days ago I got a text from my (almost) 12 year old daughter begging to move if trump wins. The death of RBG was being heavily discussed on TikTok or some such forum and some of the older kids correctly pointed out that women, lgbtq people, immigrants and others would lose rights.
When I got home, I tried to explain to her that we were going to bust our butts to stop the senate from confirming any person for Supreme Court justice and to get Biden and down ticket Democrats elected and hopefully return our country to its former glory. I also lost my dad and an aunt earlier this year who both despised trump. My aunt actually said that she wanted to live long enough to see trump beaten. So we have to double down in our efforts to destroy trump and his minions. Not only for RBG, but for my dad, my aunt, and my child. I do not want to sound selfish but its personal now.
