One of the best times of our lives, personally on every level....yet it's during the trump end times.
Having our personal lives as such a strength surely helps us endure, but it seems such a shame to have this persistent dark cloud.
Fortunately most of our family, and of course those closest to us insofar as friends, are on the same page. And in my work I feel no pressure to reveal
myself. Some likely agree politically and others not. They leave me alone.
My midsize town is conservative, which is a drag (eastern Washington state), but my state is probably in the top 3 most progressive.

I hope he goes to jail for a long, long time. It'd be cheaper to pay his room and board behind bars than fighting his bullshit initiatives every election cycle.

Wonder if he'd accept $79 from a "lib". Would love to buy him the chair as an act of utter humiliation.
On second thought, naaaaah....

I missed that. It isn't the best in any way for me. Am I doing something wrong? Or did I misunderstand your statement?
