102. Forgive? NEVER!!!!!
Mon Jun 1, 2026, 02:06 PM
14 hrs ago

I have been on this planet for many decades. I have NEVER EVER experienced anything like I (we, this country) are going through right now. Specifically because all these idiots fell for the con man of the century. Sadly, many of these morons still think he's the chosen one, as they are getting screwed every day while the destruction of our democracy in occurring right in front of them/us. The corruption is off the chart, The ignorance and stupidity is off the chart. It's sickening.

Will I forgive them? HELL NO........ NEVER.

Shit, I still have neighbors and lost friends that still think the grifting fraudster and felon and ......... (the list goes on and on and on) is doing the right thing. The whole Trump thing and his corrupt admin and Congress are very bad for America. Don't let anyone tell you any different.
