00:08of those policies in 2017, and we're dealing with those ramifications right now.
00:14We can talk about 2016, when we were, many folks were unsure about what they were going to do,
00:22and so many people didn't even exercise their right to vote. Alfonso and Ebony, they thought,
00:28one candidate who was the most qualified candidate in our nation's history by the
00:32name of Secretary Clinton was on the ballot, but oh, but her emails, and then another guy
00:38who people thought, oh, he would never win. Well, because people stayed home,
00:42because people played games in this binary system and voted third party,
00:47we ended up with a Donald Trump presidency, and he was able to appoint not one, not two,
00:52but three Supreme Court justices who are overturning decades of precedent.
00:58Roe v. Wade was overturned on my birthday, June 24, 2022, worst president I ever received,
