There’s one person squarely to blame for Trump’s corruption, authoritarianism & assault on democracy: John Roberts. He’s enabled so much of Trump’s lawlessness while somehow escaping accountability for it

Come at the king who wrote "come at the king, you best not miss", you best not miss.
There is not a statistic readily available that you will not fuck up, conflate or otherwise distort in order to luxuriate in your boomer hate.
By "straight up numbers" Trump voters are NOT the vast majority Boomers. Utterly false. Let's do this:

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
