For folks who say, "Why should I even bother calling my Democratic Senator? They'll vote the right way..."

I need you to understand that when Dem electeds try to justify why they're cowering in terror from Trump right now, the VERY FIRST THING THEY CITE is:

"no one's calling my office"

I would *never* do that. Nope. Never.

Indeed! Somewhere we have Patrick’s dad’s handwritten eggnog recipe. He was obviously plastered on the stuff when he wrote it.
