welp... just watched PBS Newshour. I'm so confused...

Diversity, competence, intellect, creativity, kindness, decency, respect everywhere coming from Biden on down through all of his cabinet, selections, staff. It is a delight to the senses.

The confusing part... how can any American, how can even the republican pols NOT see this as the way to go?

I am as relieved and joyous as I am terrified at what is lurking within the "cult".

amateur hour incompetents who where in those positions just a couple of weeks ago. trump's admin and tenure was a nightmarish dumpster fire that lasted for four years and damn near destroyed the country.

And the R's in Congress are just there to reap the rewards of being elected. They care nothing about the Constitution or America.

They don't see any good things coming from Biden yet. They still seem convinced that the election was stolen from Trump.

Fuckin' sad.
