As long as they don’t give the milk to their innocent children either…
I see, thank you kindly for your explanation. I knew he’s still the head of the Republican Party but I didn’t expect him to still be able to influence foreign relations to such a large extent. That’s just wild to me.
I’m a bit out of the loop on this - how the heck did a guy who isn’t even in office any more undo the diplomatic progress of the President? Does he actually still have any sway with foreign leaders?
I’m just about to reach a month too. Joined as soon as I heard Reddit was killing Apollo, the main way I used Reddit.
I think people tend to choose the more unique/recognizable name to call candidates by. For example, we also call Bernie Sanders by his first name more often than his last. “Harris” is a more common name than “Kamala”. “Clinton” could be confused for Bill, but “Hillary” isn’t going to be mistaken. I don’t think it has anything to do with the candidate’s gender.
