43. The better side of humanity does, from time to time, emerge. It's looking more and more like this is the time.

Oct 30

It's as if, every once in a while, the planets align or something and the opportunity to use common sense just falls into people's laps. This is one of those times. Because of the issues at hand, voting Trump off the political landscape is probably the best decision we could make for ourselves. He's been poison for a long time. He's like taking small daily doses of arsenic.

More people than we can imagine are facing the dread of voting for Trump. They know he's awful for countless reasons. And they have to face the horrible consequences of a Trump victory. I think that a lot of people are anticipating another term of Trump with dread and will switch their vote at the last minute.
