Hey, MEdia. People jamming the house phones is what killed the ethics bill

Pussygrabber's tweets didn't have a thing to do with it. They were written in word salad and late to the game. No one knew what they meant.

I have been thinking all morning that this was staged like all of the Pussygrabber's PR.

He'll have to take "credit" (blame) for THAT, won't he? Since, he's now literally "God-Emperor of the United States (GEOTUS)"?

But we're stuck with him for at least the next 4 years (and, literally, hopefully, ONLY the next 4 years).

Does anybody know which is more effective?

Emails are easier but I do not mind making phone calls.

Emails are too easy to send and to spam the offices with. A real voice on the other end of the line ensures that there is at least a human making the contact. Letters are too slow and take more staff time in this day and age.
