14. Anger, Sir, And Even Hatred, Can Be Harnessed To Power Decency And Compassion

Mon Apr 6, 2020, 10:28 AM

Apr 2020

One suspects they will be this year in Mr. Biden's campaign.

The chief energy in this election comes from middle of the road types grown disgusted with this cheap thug Trump, and the passion of rank and file Democrats who hate the cheap thug like poison. Both these elements are going to grow stronger with time, under the press of unfolding events.

"Overthrow of a hated enemy is something to be for!!!"

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
