   Well don't vote for Moore then if/when he announces his candidacy. We   
   know you were dying to.   
      
   And speaking of putting stuff "front & center" and then suddenly   
   avoiding it how about Trump and the Epstein Files.   
      
   Pales in importance to some ambiguous yarn from the 19th century, right?   
      
   BTW a little research shows this story (uncredited) was ripped from The   
   Daily Wire, whose sole purpose is to reinforce the notion that all   
   White Conservative Christian Males' problems are the fault of other   
   groups.   
      
   Never too early for the far-right dirty tricksters to get started on a   
   little "-boating" though, in this case Jamaica-boating.
