Oh, piss off, both of you.

("Tone dead"?  Maybe he means "tone deaf".  Nice English there,
Mr. "English Professor")

And "the winds of change sweeping society" is hard to reconcile with
Bottom Sludge winning 1.5% over his opponent.  That is not
a "MAGA mandate", as much as Mango Mussolini lies about that.

(Most of the time I see that MAGA clown is quoted by you...I might have
to adjust my reading habits some more.)
