19. It all reminds me of the film "Wag the Dog" and the Bush years on steroids (again)...

I am despondent over the state of the country and the world today. Literally alternating tears and rage fits. There is no doubt this is taking years off my life and is poisoning my soul because I honestly wake up each day and hope today is the day he dies. Today is the day that we stop the descent...and then Fetterman stabs the party in the back and advances ANOTHER lunatic (Mullins) into positions of power and I'm left shaking again.

Can we all at least stop pretending that John Fetterman is rational and on our side in any way, shape or form? With "Deomocrats" like him, who needs Republicans?

I am pleading with the universe to have mercy on us all and bring this era to a screeching end...PLEASE!!!!
