I should vote for trump.   Maybe he’d send me to Cuba.

Trump's fascism is becoming more deliberate & there will be no opposition to this because anti-communism has always been the tie that unites Democrats/liberals and Republicans/conservatives. Because socialism/communism (people power) is the only real threat to the ruling class. https://t.co/PnJpxmEBJG

A lot of Left Twitter discourse reminds me of the punchline to this old Emo Philips joke about trying to talk a jumper off of a bridge. pic.twitter.com/UCcekYsGRt

I met Senator Diane Feinstein once, in the lead up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
