Jon,
Do you see your expression here?
You have been making this same face since I was at Penn during George W. Bush.
You have made your career, from this face, about those two parties.
And yet. And yet, when push comes to shove, you pull for blue.
You complain and complain! about how awful they both are and yet.
And yet. You refuse to denounce one of them forever.
I am beginning to think it's because you like this problem. This two-party disaster. Because it's fodder for your pen. You pay your bills with this problem the same way cops and corrections officers pay theirs from the arrests of innocent people.
-Alex
P.S. Ronny you killed it this week.
And Big Mike! You've been on point too. It's your boss who stagnated.
P.P.S. Desi. One name. Rachel Tokar.
P.P.P.S. Jon the Thursday show, when you came in special, to give it to The Chump. That was better. You're bored with every Monday. Just come in when you feel like it.
