It’s scary to think these people vote. Actually, they probably don’t, if that’s any small comfort…
Small confession, when asked to name a country that begins with “U,” the first two that popped into mind were Uganda and Uruguay (but not Yugoslavia).
Thanks, Roger!

I only came up with Uruguay and then I went dry. I don’t think of us as the United States; my default is “America,” which I know is technically incorrect, but I have just never referred to it any other way.
