Damage they do, etc.

Destroying the institutions, destroying research and science and medicine and everything that makes a nation great is exactly what they’re doing on purpose and they know what they’re doing to the extent that they are too stupid to understand any of it but they know that’s what makes the democracy strong.

The rest of the planet will never trust us again, never. We’ve lost everything. We are going to lose everything. We are not going to get it back, if we don’t start fighting tomorrow in a very real very fucking real way, we’ll lose our lives too.
