More than a few. There’s an entire mall nearby. Do you know why I’m not looting them? Because I’m respecting science and social distancing while waiting for a fucking racist imbecile on a message board to provide a cite for a claim he pulled out of his dumb ass.

All right, **Octi** : I really didn’t wanna have to go down this road, considering the intense triggering this might set off with you, but:

Statist.

Well, I actually didn’t in 2016 but since the choice is between inept and criminally evil I’ll have to choose the inept orange one in 2020.

You don’t need to make a choice: with Trump, you get both inept **and** criminally evil! Of course, you’re the only one who doesn’t know that, but that’s part for the course.
