I wish the press would take responsibility and apologize for missing the most important story in a generation -- systematic Russian interference in our election -- because they were too focused on revenue and ratings generating gossip and story lines to pay attention.
I also wish that anyone who touted their support of third party candidates in 2016 or excused others for abrogating their responsibility to keep Trump out of the White House would acknowledge their ownership of Trump's culture of cruelty, his administration's domestic and foreign policies, the bankrupting of our country in the service of making millionaires richer, and the current Supreme Court.
History will not absolve them.
They need to take responsibility and apologize.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
