Even with everything idiot Gov. Abbott has done, the Democratic county judge of Dallas County is always careful to say publicly that the virus is the enemy, not the governor or a political party. I commend him for that, but I'm sure he has a few choice words about Texas Republicans in private.

Does this mean his "this was a fraudulant election" BS is going to be put to rest? I doubt it.

to begin with. The only reason Trunp ran in 2016 was to get better ratings on his stupid TV show.

sincere. That is what I have read around on conservative sites. I personally think they just question his sincerity because he is black.

...and the whole ConClownKar.

This charade burned through 278 MILLION dollars.

How many homeless would that help?
How many school lunches?
How much affordable housing?

Screw these assholes...

So in reality, the 278 million would house less than 500 homeless people.


Not even really a drop in the bucket.

(Why it costs so much to build housing for the homeless in California is a different question entirely and one not appropriate for this forum.)

defeating a Republican attempt at hijacking California for more power. Not so much about Elder, although in terms of PR he was one of the few Republicans that actually got anything out of this. That said, I’m looking forward to not hearing about him anymore, again.
