Making American politics bearable

I value you tremendously - I don’t have to choke on the insanity of American news. BUT, John, you simply must pronounce KAMala Harris correctly. It must be deliberate, which makes me wonder what on earth is going on. Thank you.
Wokeness? Really?
٢٥ ربيع الأول
Weighing in on the fake culture wars (no two people define ‘woke’ the same) should be beneath you. The GOP Senate undemocratically stole a SCOTUS pick from Obama. A man who lost the popular vote placed three corrupt Justices on the Court. “The Left” is reeling from the consequences of these anti-democratic actions. Rightwing response: woke.
Election rejection

I agree with a previous review. We all made an effort to pronounce John’s name correctly. It seems strange that he can’t be bothered do the same for one of the people running for president.
Winter’s Defense of the Electoral College is Sophmoric
١١ ربيع الأول
Oh, sure it makes any needed recounts “simpler…” Adam just conveniently omits mention that each state has different voting rules which allows one party dominated states — usually red — to mess about with voting rules, ballots (remember hanging chads?) & generally put a finger on the scale for their favored party before, during & after balloting. Maybe hire smarter millennials? He’s just as bad as Idriss C. Miss Fasman.
