RE: They Keep Telling Us Who They Are

Yes. Yes, they do. No real need for any reminders here. But good reminders never hurt.

We must also tell 'them' who we are. But more importantly, we must 'show' them who we are. In the next election. And the one after that. And the one after that.

Meantime, a little 'telling' when an appropriate opportunity arises can't hurt. A recent brief conversation between myself and a co-worker who's well entrenched in the Trump-a-sphere, and with whom I seldom exchange many words, the last few of which concerned a car-deer accident some time back:

"Hey, M... you hear the *former Vice President's* got Covid?"

(I had not yet heard of Biden's Covid infection, so was caught off balance for a brief second. I guess he could see the question mark on my face.)

"You know...the *former Vice President* that's sitting in the Oval Office now. I like to show proper respect for offices and job titles...you get what I'm pitchin'?"

"I get what you're pitchin', but I ain't catchin'. Biden won. Trump lost. The election was fine. And you need to get over it. So, you get your car fixed yet?"

Didn't get an answer on that.
