The Dems put human well being before almighty money & believe in science. Also have functional brain cells to act accordingly.

Last I heard the definition of intelligence is to be aware of your environment & to respond to it appropriately. 😉

To me, intention is everything. 👍

The Bush crew were liars and incompetents and warmongers, but they weren't mentally ill like Trump and his cult.

There's really no one in American presidential history I can point to that would have handled this worse than Trump. He is uniquely unsuited for the job.

It's like asking how would I rather die, get shot or fall off of a building. But yeah, I don't think W would have called it a hoax.
