How Would History Have Been Different If Previous Presidents Were Like Donald Trump? #ABlueView 🧵 Thank heavens they were not. I guess the more burning question, though, is whether we'll have any more in the future ... What do you think? Are we one and forever done? 1/2

Really enjoyed reading Greg Cook, a Trump nominee to a district court in Alabama, spend roughly 50 pages explaining that the time he said that "ANY REPUBLICAN IS BETTER THAN ANY DEMOCRAT" does not in any way suggest that he might be biased in favor of Republicans
