    In a better world we’d have some kind of test for empathy for those running for office.

    “Thanks for coming in, we have your test results back and it turns out you’re an irredemable cunt and therefore you can’t run, try being less Republican. All the best.”

    if it is a federally-funded program why is it allowed to be state’s rights issue?

    we need a president that supports federal over state’s rights
