Mark Kelly is a national hero who has served his country for his entire life.
Donald Trump is a felon-rapist who is taking food from hungry children.
If you're attacking the former and supporting the latter, you're a lousy human and a terrible patriot.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
