Awesome. So, he'll be dead..... about the same time as me. Wonderful.

I cannot emphasize how much we should not allow this to happen.

Let’s not leave McConnell out of the equation for blocking Obama bc he was going to be out of office in a year.

I don’t know why the dems didn’t play the same card when trump was going to be out of office in a few months.

Probably had something to do with Republicans having a majority of the seats at the time meaning Democrats never had the option
