I'm sort of getting annoyed with the people saying I'm not going to be part of it this time and respond to everything he does. Sorry, you don't get a choice. It's your democracy and your life, or not. Time to wake up out of the stupor.

We spent the last four years writing about the high price of eggs under Biden. Now that they’ve reached an all-time high under Trump we’ve moved on to other topics.
