were quiet. You know who didn't follow the rules? The Resistance.

Plus I'm betting more Democrats can figure out parental controls than MAGA people. It is math. They try the SAVE Act, we try the block your parents Fox News with parental controls.

Falls more under mischief, like when I make sure I put a roll of toilet paper with Trumps face in the guest bathroom when my parents visit because I know it will annoy them. Am I disrespecting a guest in my home? Maybe. But at the end of the day it’s not that deep.

I can't imagine having to put up with that in your own house. I also change the channel away from Fox in the waiting room at my car dealership.

I didn't want to have to see it if I was scrolling through the channels. And, it just felt good to do it. I'm another who will change the channel away in a waiting room, too.
