Trump admitted that he pardoned corrupt Democrat Cuellar so that Cuellar wouldn't run for reelection as a Dem. Cuellar is running as a Dem anyway and Trump is fuming about his "lack of loyalty."

This. The stupidity is suicidal: "Better to reign in hell than serve in heaven." Both of Trump's narrow victories came against women -- one white, one Black. Yet in between came a landslide victory for a white man, Joe Biden. Racism and misogyny are the dead hands dragging America down.
It's not just them.
White women slightly improved from 55-44% to 53-46% for Trump while Latino men went from 59-36% for Biden to 54-44% for Trump & Muslim voters threw more support behind Stein & Trump than Harris after 55% voted for Biden.
We just have the stupidest electorate in history.

During ratification of the 14th Amendment, senators discussed whether the Citizenship Clause would apply to the children of immigrants and resoundingly concluded that it did. The text and history all point in one direction and the counter-arguments are patently fraudulent. I am going to lose my mind
