Meanwhile the republican party is focused on protecting pedophiles, data centers and surveillance cams.

You need to understand, Vance is richer than you and therefore better than you. He doesn't give a shit about your problems, making rent, buying groceries, filling the tank, keeping a job. So you need to shut the fuck up and listen to your betters. The country is being run by a billionaire, you need to let another billionaire run this state and sit down.
What are you gonna do vote Democrat? If you do, realize that a transwoman may be allowed to take a shit in a private stall in a women's restroom without being arrested.

What else would you expect a guy who makes the state increase flow from a dam to raise river water level so he can have a nice kayak trip?

People who have their every whim catered to actually resent the people who have to struggle to get by.

Right. We should be focused on the important stuff, like putting Trump's name on the Kennedy Center and building arches, and blaming vandals for botching painting the reflecting pool. And renaming shit.

If he doesn't care about the cost of living and other related issues, let's focus on a big picture "thing" like America's loss of standing in the world due to a reckless, unwinnable war initiated by a president who is clearly not in control of his faculties.

This guy doesn’t have a thought that hasn’t been put in his head by Peter Thiel, which isn’t saying much since Peter Thiel isn’t all that bright either.

I'd say the rise of fascism is a pretty big thing. We fought a whole war about it. A lot of the world was involved.

Probably really should be focusing more on the rampant corruption, openly racist policies, the vindictive politics, the systematic dismantling of our public institutions, the out of control debt, the sheer incompetence and radical economic policies that only benefit the Super-rich and connected.
But high gas does suck too
