How do you go to your pre sentencing/probation hearing and not get a drug test and psych report?

[@susanbracken4237]

Absolutely - whatever issue # 2,3,4, etc are, it won’t matter unless we focus on issue #1, democracy and Constitution!

[@DisaffectedLiberal]

Issue number 1 is the economy, followed by immigration.

I usually have respect for David Frum but his apparently dismissing food prices as a matter of secondary importance is quite grotesque. In particular, it is going to sound like confirmation that Trump's opponents and critics have no understanding of the grievances of those in poverty. I don't think Trump is any friend of such people - but it's clearly important that, in their eyes, those who oppose Trump don't unintentionally make themselves look like something worse.
