1. The era of Republican lunacy began in 1994. Thirty years ago.

I’ve been more or less exhausted since then. It’s draining knowing that one is living in a failing nation, being driven into the bedrock by demented pseudo humans who were raised on anti-government propaganda, and think Russia is a model for how a country should be.

They have robbed us of our vaunted optimism; the birthright of every American to believe that we can craft a better future for ourselves, our children, and everyone who comes here wanting a new life.

They can’t control an optimistic people. So they created hate media. Mainlining anger, resentment, and spurious grievances into the substandard minds of those who thought the promise of America was to be theirs alone.

Having to live in the same country as these malcontents has been utterly exhausting.

We need the joy of a Kamala Harris Presidency…
