Some of us have had our family members succumb to dementia, delirium, alzheimers, and other

mental breakdowns. It's heartbreaking. It's exhausting. It's beyond frustrating.

But we know not to put them in charge of the free world.

Who's gonna tell the KGOP?

Heartbreaking to watch.

As for the KGOP, they only understand money and power. If tRump's recession continues for a few more months, that'll hit Trumpism in the pocketbook. They won't last much after that.

she had no functioning kidneys, but it was affecting her brain for who knows how many years.

I knew she was broken, but not even the docs knew what.

It worked. She could still see it out in the driveway, but wasn't going to drive it into a tree.

at 89 started calling the cops every time my mother left the house to say she had cleaned out his bank account and run away. It was heartbreaking.

The police finally visited me at work to say I had to do something.

I would do anything to protect him. But I would not let him run for president.
