Nice try, not interested in litigating the last 40 years, or even last year. My only concern is what is happening to this country now and that is 100% Republican. Not to mention what has happened in the past is like a fart in the wind compared to now.

How many families are devastated, by what is happening in this country now (which Kirk had a part in promoting) Just because that pain is dispersed throughout the country and not specific like this means it is any less, undoubtedly it is exponentially more.
