I don’t know about you, but—during this 250th anniversary year—I’m not going to stay quiet while Trump and his regime lies, steals, cheats, abuses, commits crimes, trashes our Constitution & imagines their cruelty & hate in any way represents America. I’ve had a little break and I’m ready to fight.

America: oh yeah? Our guy has to take dementia tests every week.
