When billionaires can make a “killing” by destroying both? Trump said there would be 20 Covid cases then it would just blow away. Same thing with toxic air pollution it will just blow away. Sadly toxic conservatism won’t.

TFG won't be around to suffer from the worst effects of climate change, so he's making money while can, but the rest of us will be here and that's why we have to fight back now.

I will NEVER forgive the deplorables who voted for someone who would sell out ALL our descendants' future. I fear that history may look back on this as the worst thing that happened because of this malignant narcissist.
