Until the GOP rights itself and fully separates from the current Trump worship, it needs to be removed from power. If and when it rights itself, moves back to the center, and selects honest, responsible leadership, we can rethink this position. But not until then. l.smartnews.com/p-8GLZGCBO/e...

If you had “more munitions than you could ever possibly think of using”, why would anyone with a brain cell carry on “building them up to levels never seen before”. That makes zero sense, unless of course it’s complete horseshit.
