It''s just not going to hap[en quickly, no matter how many stupid ideas come out of this gang of ideologues and other idiots.

She hadn't heard from her in years. They use to work together. The old friend is a MAGA. The MAGA had questions about the protest pictures my sister had posted. The MAGA is questioning supporting tRump and is ready to leave the cult.
