I hope someday to be able to vote for him for President.

I know that it can seem like the shamelessness and the ruthlessness of the people in charge gives them a big advantage, but they have a massive disadvantage as well, which is that many of them know that what they're part of is wrong.
And the sooner they feel like they might have to answer for it one day, the sooner this house of cards will fall
We don't have much time to lose, so for God's sake, let's keep it up.
