I’ve had enough of the same ol’ same ol’. These no one is above the law or we don’t negotiate with terrorists don’t mean a thing anymore and TSF is a terrorist who has n never will serve a minute for his crimes and misdemeanors. The old guard needs to step aside and mentor, give advice on how the system can work when the opposition has all three branches of government. We are not just facing a dangerous president elect..he has the Project 2025 people, the SC and lower courts he’s stack for this very reason and that is to dismantle this country. Mamby pamby retorts aren’t how we need to respond.
