All we can do is what we can do.

I try my hardest online to get people to wake the hell up.
I get a lot of pushback. To this day so many people think Trump
is just a stupid buffoon. When in reality he is a deadly psychopath.

The other reality is that I firmly believe in We The People, a democracy.
Where I have to admit they have the right to vote in a dictatorship.
Which is what they have done.
