People say the GOP needs better candidates than Trump.
They *did* have better candidates in '16, '20, *and* '24.
2016: Pataki, Jeb Bush, Kasich
2020: Bill Weld
2024: Will Hurd, Asa Hutchinson |

| High prices and frequent product recalls are in part because companies no longer have the pre-pandemic staffing levels for production and quality control. And now with bird flu being a big issue, we need this more than ever. The Trump tariffs aren't going to help matters either. Despite Covid being ... |

I get emotionally attached to people very easily, and get super depressed when they leave social media (and there's no other way to get a hold of them), or take a long absence.
BTW, I like your avatar. Are you a Simpsons fan? |

I wonder why they still call it tweeting, rather than X-ting. |

| I've learned very quickly that we are in a new era in The United States, and I am a little more careful about saying certain things in public or writing things online.
