81. I wish I could move out of the country, but I can't. And I won't leave my kids and grandson.

They're all I've got, and if something happens to them, I'm going to be here for them, or die trying to help them.

I do wish I could convince them to go. The middle boy is a Republican fool, but he's mine and I love him anyway.

Whatever the Orange Anus plans, I'll deal with it.
