Since most of the other people on there and the moderators agree with me - I get away with it. It’s my opportunity to let out all the anger out and make some MAGATs look really stupid. Most everyone likes my posts and the MAGAT hides in embarrassment for a while. As they say “the pen is mightier than the sword.” Being a writer and having facts on my side, no MAGAt is safe on there.
