          It sure was. I remember the day that Biden won. I also remember the tension from that point until he was finally in office. And then…it was like a gigantic weight was taken off my chest.

          I was hardly the only one. It was no more of the “oh gawd, what did he do today?” kind of stress…donnie’s trials and so on were covered, sure, but he had no power during that time, so it was just a shitgibbon making noise.

      Nah. They needed trump, still.

      “Economy showing signs of recovery” didn’t help the GqP at all and it needed to be swapped out for something valueless that sells papers. Thus, trump.
