I love all of your substack posts, but this one extra got me (as someone who had a “what happens if Trump wins” conversation with her 7 year old last night…). Thank you for this laugh/happy cry.
The irony to me, at least since 2000, is: anyone can do that job. I remember thinking, and quite frequently, between 2000-2008, "If Bush 43 can do this, any woman can, and maybe any child, and definitely much better."
Then came 2016, when the office's occupant became someone who to this day doesn't know anything about anything. I didn't think that was possible -- to be an actual know-nothing. And then came Dean!
*2 women have tried to be president. Can’t forget Chisholm!
Dean and his people suck.
