Any time someone’s wearing a cross around their neck it’s best to steer clear, and the bigger it is the farther away you should stay.

Or disorder.

Vance also argued that “the most important thing is not what you said five years ago”

Why thank you Mr. Vance. I was looking for an ironic quote to put atop a tweet with a slo-mo clip of my hand dropping your book (published in 2016) into a wastebasket unread. Damn punk. There are plenty of books to read written by people with convictions and ethical standards.

“Yeah, back in 2016 Trump seemed like such an unsavory character.”

"But after his “university” was proven to be a scam and he was ordered to pay $25mil to the students, and his foundation was dissolved for gross mismanagement and corruption including stealing money from it, and he routinely took the side of white nationalists, and insulted women whom he raped, and broke dozens of laws to expand his power, and colluded with Russia for four years, choosing them over his own country, and been impeached twice and lost his re-election and not accepted the obvious landslide, and ran dishonest and false claims in court over the election and continued to lie about a rigged election, and incited an insurrection at the capitol, and watched the violence on TeeVee, cheering them on, and killed 400,000 people with lies about COVID, and has called for attacks on his VP Mike Pence, and has had his company and CFO indicted for 15 counts of fraud, tax lies and conspiracy, and lost the support of most of the nation and has continued his downward sundowning spiral into insanity…

…now, I’m TOTALLY on board!!!"
