Give me the optimist—the one who still believes people can be better than the headlines. A humble, sharp-eyed dreamer who leads with a grin instead of a sneer, who offers fixes instead of fairy tales. Someone who doesn’t give a damn what color your skin is, what god you pray to, or if you pray at all. Just a human being who still believes in other human beings.
Or do I vote for the bitter old warhorse—the career parasite who wraps himself in the flag and plays the victim when thirteen women say he’s a predator? The kind who screams “terrorist sympathizer” at his opponent and dusts off the Bible when he’s got nothing left but fear to sell?
I’ll take Mr. Mamdani—a man with light in his eyes instead of rot in his soul. God knows this bruised and broken country could use a few more like him.

New Trump Policy Could Make Thousands Of Immigrants Vulnerable To Losing Their Jobs — Huffington Post
Trump should start his crusade against immigration fraud by looking a little closer to home—at those who claim to be “highly intelligent” but couldn’t outthink a doorknob.

It might, however, qualify you for the Epstein Lifetime Achievement Award—Pinup of the Month for the Billionaires’ Perverts Club.
