We voted for their farms because we know Democratic policies are better for farmers. Unfortunately, farmers didn’t vote for their farms.

To The People I Know Who Voted for Him, To the people I know who voted for him,

To the people I know who voted for him,

You know how I feel about him.

But as this next chapter of our nation begins, I just want you to know:

I am going to hold you responsible.

Donald Trump did this. #TheEGGSellentPresident.

There is a reason TikTok is so good at figuring out what you want to see, and why it’s better than everything else: it’s a weapon, and the best weapon is one you don’t know exists, or worse, one you think you can’t live without
