15. He's been naming the "establishment" of both parties for 5 years. The "establishment" of my party

just impeached Donald Trump. The "establishment" of my party includes Nancy Pelosi, Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Lewis, Joe Biden, Adam Schiff, Stacy Abrams, Chuck Schumer, Eliot Engel.

They represent ME. I AM the "establishment" of the party. The idea that I should somehow find it acceptable when he calls these people his enemies is disgusting.

Divisive? Couldn't be more so.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
