Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

Trump isn't even in office yet & we're already talking about letting him bypass the Constitution as though that's a normal conversation to be having.

I know we make jokes just to relieve the stress, but people have no idea what’s about to happen to them.
