America could never warm up to Hillary, though this never made sense to most of us. “What exactly don’t you like about her?” we’d ask.

A reader notes: What a loss for America when we lost her as POTUS. And got satan instead.

True. Think about where we’d be right now in terms of things like environmental and social justice. Think of what our news stories would be about.

Would Russia have been emboldened to attack Ukraine?

Mostly, of course, we wouldn’t be teetering on the edge of authoritarianism, centered around a man with tens of millions of heavily armed hateful white nationalists in support.

What does the most affluent state in America need in its next governor? I’m pretty sure it not a Trump supporter.

Yes, we have traffic, which we hate. But that’s because everybody and his dog wants to be here for our economic opportunities and our natural beauty.

In general, we reject racism, ignorance, corruption, and environmental destruction.

I can’t swear that the content of the meme here is accurate; in fact, most affluent Scandinavians I run across admit that they pay higher taxes than Americans.

They claim that the attraction is that they aren’t forced to live among uneducated slobs where people are dying of treatable diseases with masses of impoverished people living on the streets.

Isn’t there something to be said for that?
