    Sorry for you, and the people of WV who elected him. I see lots of Reps are catching shit during town halls back home. Good.

    Me, I’m happy with my senators. Both have pissed off the Donald to no end. Murphy first with the gun control stuff, then Blumenthal leaking what the Justice Elect told him.

    I don’t know if evil is banal, as Arendt said. It sure is smug though.
