We don't determine other peoples timelines. These folks deserve to be shielded in their old age. They spent a lifetime paying taxes, working to build or endure. A lifetime that gave us what we have now. We can do better. The gall of these people after bleating the abortion mantras for so long. Just goes to show its all a bunch of sliding scale bullcrap from the right wing who insist that praying to their god and adhering to their biblical tenants, is what we should all be doing, while they decide lifes boundaries for other people.
They ruin everything. Religion, schools, rock and roll....everything they touch.
Saying 'they're old anyway' is a complete abdication of what we stand for in America, and I'll throw it in their faces from now until eternity.

Saying that older Americans are expendable and their lives don't matter - plus Trump's rush to push through executions! And these monsters claim to be "pro-life??!!"

He didn't want the job, had no intention of doing it, this was just his latest money-making scheme after the failure of Trump steaks, vodka and university. He was counting on those campaign contributions.

He complained publicly about President Obama's occasional round of golf. And I still remember President Carter - plus I have his autobiography. He announced at the beginning of his presidency that he'd never lie to the American people - so the press was all over every public statement he made, looking for any shade of falsehood. I cannot believe that this is still going on, let alone that there were people who voted for this monster - who lied about this pandemic and thousands have died and are still dying every single day.

This is an international disgrace of unsurpassed dimension.

If he played in the MLB, he would have been ejected with stiff fines for making a mockery of the game!

But, sadly, since he is sitting on the football, no one can take action.

Absolutely fucking outrageous!
