After years of bullying from a lost political party of liars and cheaters, everyone should agree the we forever reject the toxic practice.

These past years were an American disaster orchestrated by a chaotic and toxic person who habitually seeks to harm and intimidate anyone perceived as vulnerable. Stopping it is a necessary ethical building block of society.
