Why did we have to wind up with Nancy Mace?

One of my kids asked if the stars we see are still there, because they know light takes time to travel so we are seeing the past, and so what if the stars are all gone and we are already alone in the universe
always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay
