Anyone tries to tell you trans people aren’t really trans, think of this girl. To be herself, she turned her back on a level of wealth that is incomprehensible to any of us. Her descendants would have had money for as long as there is money. Yes, there’s more to life, but that’s a hell of a thing.

This is insane. Every consultant or advisor who has planted this idea in his head should be fired. Then Schumer should resign.
Schumer tells me Republicans might try to jam Democrats again in September, but thinks Trump will be less popular then and Republican appropriators might be more willing to stand up to him. He said they refused to do so now.
