It is a scandal totally unprecedented in history that the Vice President has shared a video depicting the President as king. It’s an obscene violation of every founding American principle.

And nothing will come of it. It makes me physically sick.

I doubt very much his family is in danger. That's the sort of shit MAGAts pull, not us. But it doesn't take much talent to figure out Republicans dumped his ass because it was radioactive. A few may have actually been appalled by the stuff he posted.

My family has a corn farm in the Midwest, so I do get it. They also grow soy beans which they started because it was profitable but it’s clearly not anymore. They just signed a lease with a wind farm.

Point being, farmers have to adapt, it’s the way it’s always been.
