Gore winning 2000 means no Alito or Roberts. Clinton winning 2016 means no Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, or Barrett. A few thousand votes' difference means misery and terror for millions.

I have never seen so many snapping turtles out & about. Is this a "so long & thanks for all the fish" scenario? I've been #cycling regularly for over 30 years. I've never so many snappers out for a stroll.
