As Mr Pierce often notes, these really are the mole people. They have zero respect for our Constitution and laws. Stop voting for Republicans.

Goobers don’t want to ever lose. They do not believe in democracy or the vote count from the voters. If it doesn’t go their way just throw out the election and declare a dictatorship. That is the GOP of today and trump’s gift to America.

Former governor Scott Walker, who is mostly responsible for turning Wisconsin into cheesehead Orbanism was on CNN last night. I couldn’t bear to watch him. Even prior Republican governors like Tommy Thompson were relatively collegial and never went down this road.
