Yeah... super-awesome when she insisted that the states should be able to decide whether they follow federal disability law. Which she initially didn't even know existed. In response to a congresswoman who has a disabled son.

That's fine as long as you aren't nominated to run one of the departments you can't remember the name of.

Currently interesting are some who literally contradict what Trump believes. That includes a proposed Sec of Defense and UN Ambassador. Both have accurately defined a major threat by Putin. Putin was successfully impeded by international economic sanctions promoted by Obama, created by US financial industry, and fully endorsed / supported by the rest of the world.

Trump even wants to end that - so as to enable / restart an invasion of Ukraine. Some of his proposed administration appointments have clearly stated that would be disastrous - openly disagreeing with Trump. Curious. Who's beliefs will win out?

Putting it simply, I hope Trump and Pence die soon and I don't care how.
And if you're not part of one or more of the groups that Trump has already spoken negatively about, shut the fuck up about what you think of my statement.

That's the usual desire for arch-enemies... except super heroes, they just lock them away. Can't fuck up the sequels, you know.

For many reasons. He's a proven serial liar, a traitor to this country, a sexual predator, homophobe, hate and fear-monger piece of shit.
Yes, I want him dead and I hope it hurts like hell when it happens.

Does that answer your question?
