Curious about life and what makes us human
Unfortunately nothing is shocking and many folks are morally bankrupt.
I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

31.5% voted for Trump
30.6% voted for Harris
37.7% did not vote
