Friday mailbag!

We made it.

RESOLVED: Having Halloween on a Tuesday is a VERY bad thing.

The last few days have been a slog for my family — over-tired (and candy-addicted) kids just trying to make it to the end of the week. (And yes, we missed the bus this morning — thanks for asking.)

Here’s the good news: We did it!

Let’s celebrate by chatting! You had lots of good questions — as always — this week.

Now, to the questions!

Q: In an alternate universe where Mitch McConnell voted to impeach Donald Trump for J6, where do you think we'd be now? My guess: 1.McConnell voting for impeachment would have brought enough Republicans with him to get the impeachment. 2. With the threat of Trump neutralized, Biden would have resigned after the 2022 midterms due to low approval numbers and to give Harris the opportunity to run as an incumbent 3. Trump would have already been tried and convicted by now.
