Hollywood here’s your problem. Deniro says “Fuck Trump.” Bee says Ivanka is “a cunt.” Maher “hopes for a recession to get rid of Trump.” That’s all you got? Do you have any clue as to how this plays right into Trump’s playbook? Keep it up and you’ll help ensure four more years.

Let me get this straight. Biden is being criticized by the right for using notes. Which I do, and Reagan did, when you want to get it right. Trump didn’t use notes and lied on average 21 x a day. I don’t know, put me down as notes = truth.

Trump calls the indictments a fishing expedition. Well, when you refuse to disclose your taxes when you run for president, and when you are president, and claim they're being audited indefinitely for years, then, yeah, prosecutors are gonna go fishing. Cause something's fishy.

"Serve a cause greater than yourself," was a mantra of @SenJohnMcCain Thanks to him, for a chapter of my life, I was honored to do just that:

You Honored Our Deal, John McCain. I’ll Honor Your Legacy.

You hugged me and said: ‘It would be very un-McCain-like not to keep my word, so God bless you and good luck.’
