Donald Trump angers me and horrifies me.
However, my anger with him is mild compared to all the scoundrels who enabled his rise to power and his return to power because it enabled their own gains.
My anger with him is mild compared to all the elected Republicans who neglect their duties

Subway is a bowling alley. We’re not out selling sad-looking footlong subs at highway rest stops with no other options.
Homan: "ICE is a legitimate federal law enforcement agency. We're not out scouring the streets to disappear people or deny people their civil rights or due process."

Current NFL player Jared Goff is the only "famous" alum I can think of. He's not the most accomplished alum, but he's the most famous.
Who's the most famous alum of your high school?
I'll go first: David Draiman of Disturbed

Flashback to how these same folks reacted to vaccine cards...
Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

House Oversight hearing on ICE opens with the rules:
"It is also a clear violation of the rules of the House to make statements that might personally be offensive to the President or the Vice President of the United States."

Trump has never ever apologized for calling for the execution of innocent people
“In 1989, Trump took out ads in newspapers urging the death penalty for 5 black & Latino teenagers accused of raping a white woman in Central Park; he argued they were guilty as late as June 2019, more than 15 years after DNA evidence had exonerated them.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is apparently on the wall at Team Canada’s workout room.
