I don't think that "Honest" and "Corrupt" would have been the only two choices available. There were probably a few descriptions in between. I have enough faith in the American people to believe that fewer than 51 percent think he's honest and way fewer than 54% think he cares.
I had a great time chatting last night with the legendary @dearmyrtle.bsky.social on Substack. Here's our conversation: www.youtube.com/live/--exXSu...

Congratulations on the article. You spelled out clearly what responsible family historians should be doing with Find a Grave.

And only for 30 minutes monthly??? That's barely time for "Hello and how are you?"
I did after I clicked to see what it was. Sorry $5K a year is not going to happen. I'm guessing Ancestry's venture capital funders want more profit. I think Ancestry is the best genealogy site on the internet. But, it's not THAT great.
Paramount is kowtowing to the Orange Menace in order to get approval for their sale.
Disgusting doesn't even begin to describe the depravity of the Trump DOJ. I hope there will be a lot of pro bono attorneys lined up when the next Democratic administration comes in. There are going to be a lot of crimes to be prosecuted.
