I just broadened the reach.

Clearly, we humans are not as advanced as we think we are. Check out how turtles react when one is struggling. (If this link works)https://m.facebook.com/groups/560345368563557/permalink/688572252407534/

It worked, and I wonder if we aren't hard-wired to do the same. We just ignore it at our peril.

Maybe selfishness is a human thing.

Wish 1: Mitch McConnell awakens to find himself transferred into the body of an impoverished black woman, who’s highly intelligent but pregnant with her 4th child. She’s trying to finish her undergrad degree but is confronted by feeding her children or getting an education which would help save her children.

Wish 2:

Kevin McCarthy awakens to find himself in Guatemala, but now his children are beholding to a drug cartel and must escape. Not knowing in what direction to flee, he listens to a man who offers him along with his family, a safe harbor and will lead him to America but must leave one of his children behind. He remains in this state of flux until a decision is made.

Wish 3:

Trump is forced to tell the truth or his manhood falls off.

Regarding number one. Black, female Mitch says, “I need to divorce my husband and find a rich one”.

Regarding number two. McCarthy thinks, “If leave the boy it might hurt me in the the primary. If I leave the girl it could hurt me in the general. Maybe I’ll leave the wife. It won’t hurt me with the party”.

Regarding number three. It gives new meaning to the word, “Doink!”.

To clarify, McConell left his first wife for a rich one.

McCarthy, it’s a mistake to think he’d care about his kids.

And Trump losing his manhood? Well……Doink!

The Judiciary Committee hauls all 5 of the lying Republicans in for questioning about the “settled law”. Dems grow a pair and kick them all off the court.

I think that would be beautiful, and I say that even while I realize I would have to change things about myself to make that happen.
