Sadly, I am old enough (73) to remember when I could vote for a Republican. I am a “fiscal conservative” and a “social liberal”. Now, the GOP is the opposite of both. It may not be fair, but now it has been many years since I voted for ANY Republican at ANY political level from POTUS to the local City Council. I know it is extreme, but I find them “guilty by association”.
I only discovered recently that this is NOT the first time the USA was in danger of becoming what the GOP is trying to accomplish. In 1939, a Neo-Nazi party that was very popular held a rally at Madison Square Garden. Yes, the same place Trump held a big rally. You can’t make this up.
“special” was a polite way (years ago) to indicate that someone was mentally handicapped. I really am at a loss what is the word(s) that is acceptable anymore.
The scam caller did not ask Bucky for the 3 digit CVC number? I think it would be impossible to use just the card number and expiration date. Also, the last 12 digits are sequential (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2).
The same tune started in my head 17 minutes after you posted.
