    Looks like 20 million people are going to be without healthcare and a good number of them will never be able to get it again (whether for themselves or their children) because of a pre-existing condition.

    Is that a reason people could perhaps be upset? Or do they have to wait until they have a curable illness that they can't have treated?

    Is "SNL" a repeat tonight? If not, "look, shiny object!"

    Saw similar signs in Spokane. Technically a women's rights rally, basically everybody with a left-wing cause came with their group. The only thing uniting the crowd was their hatred of Trump and the GOP agenda.

    That being said ... it was encouraging to see three or four times the 2,000 people they were expecting. The area of the civic center reserved for the rally was full two hours before the march started, but everyone mingled outside. Very chill, peaceful protest and march through downtown. Surprisingly, almost no Trump fans along the route ... just a few random middle fingers and FUCK YOU from cars driving past.

    This type of response and unified opposition will be needed again when Trump nominates his ultra-conservative Supreme Court justice.

    And nobody's saying you can't wring your hands about it, babe. It's one of those few rights you still have.

    Fuck him. Resist. Rebel. By Any Means Necessary.

    What you don't know about Social Security is a lot.

    I will believe it when it happens, and if it does happen, I don't really know what I can do to stop it. So am I going to put myself in an early grave worrying about it? I'll leave that to you.

    So what's your point then? Nothing bad is going to happen? Something bad already happened.

    Something bad happened with every president we've ever known. What's your point?

    I'll be in the grave soon enough, and sooner thanks to these fascist motherfuckers cutting off my health care. Might be fun to take a few of them along with me.

    Nothing bad happened the past eight years. To think otherwise is racist.

    I'll stop now when he starts agreeing with me.
