These politicians literally have our lives at stake. People have died because of Trump and other presidents and even local level politicians. I'm too much of a fighter and care too much about people to sit back and let them run amok. If they can kill us, they should be able to handle being called a name. I'm sorry, but I'm not a sycophant and maybe I have overstayed my welcome here. But I never thought I would ever live to hear and read what some of these Dems are writing and saying. It's abominable.
