“We are going to do something that I will say is slightly controversial but it shouldn’t be. We are going to indemnify policemen and precincts and states and cities from being sued. We want them to do their job. Our police and law enforcement has to come back and they want to come back and they want to do their job. And we are going to indemnify them so they don’t lose their wife, their family, their pension, and their job. We are going to indemnify policemen and law enforcement. We are going to tell them to get out, we love you, do your job.” – Trump, speaking last night at the New York Young Republicans Club gala.

    I don’t hate them.

    Don’t lie to me. I know how you’ve responded to me in the past when I didn’t include that I was voting for Biden in my comment.

    I understand the desire to have your elected leaders actually do something progressive, or doing something that makes you truly proud of them.

    I very much doubt that.

    But as someone said, voting is a chess move, not a love letter.

    And the move expected of the progressives you hate is always “forfeit.”
