Give it some lettuce.
But seriously that man should be at home spending time with his family for the rest of his life. He’s done as much damage to the US as any other politician in the past 30 years but one still feels some compassion for and old man losing the plot.
You have more compassion than I do. All the damage that guy has done to the people of the US is too much for me to give a rat's ass about his well-being and comfort. Just on stealing Supreme Court Justices alone, who knows how many women will die because of the impact on Roe v. Wade. I rather spend my compassion on those women than this psychopath.
Well said.
If anything, this is one small, token bit of karmic justice that we're witnessing.
Maybe one does, but that's probably about the limit.
Sadly there's some competition for the title of "most damage done to the US in the last 30 years" because Newt Gingrich exists as well.
He's a terrible person and when he dies may he rot in piss.
I'd care about him going senile if him being sane wasn't as detrimental as it was.
Empathy is a good thing but let's save it for the people who actually deserve it and not old ass racist pieces of shit like him
