I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

There is a commercial that keeps running incessantly with an officer named "Chuck" who makes false claims and then gives us a number to call and thank Zach Nunn and Mariannette Miller-Meeks to thank them. I'll call the number, but not to thank them!
