Hearing even a *reference* to The Monster Mash ANY time of the year is infuriating. The song absolutely sucks and modern civilization shouldn’t even be aware of it. You should not and cannot and MUST NOT defend it. Let the worms of history finally have their feast.

THEY ARENT SCARED ABOUT THE ELECTORATE THEY ARE SCARED OF LOSING DONORS YOU IDIOTS
" Democrats are so worried about alienating a small slice of the electorate that they’re hesitating to condemn the most abusive act yet by a historically unpopular president from the opposing party." newrepublic.com/article/1996...
