occupied so they nitpick every breath he takes. Republicans love it. Despite the facts, they've got people convinced it's the end times and Democrats are orchestrating it. They blame Biden for not ending the Covid pandemic out of one side of their mouths and out the other they're telling the sheep not to wear masks or get vaccinated. Rachel's segment last week that included "magic dirt" kind of sums it all up. There is a segment of our population that is so nuts or dimwitted or easily manipulated they'll consume dirt to prevent Covid and feed it to their kids, too. I don't know how we get out of this mess when half the people are such easy dupes.
