Yep. For the guy that promises not to change anything. Un fucking believable that that is the best I, we, they can do. Or maybe it is depressingly believable. But I did it.

I have skipped voting in the past, and I have at times regretted when I did vote. That time I went into a trance and voted for the Zionist investment banker because he was with ( Read more... )
