Designed is different from made.

He is describing Donald Trump, actually.

Edit: except he does have real estate. But he still shouldn't be in charge.

I have been happy as a Linux user for more than ten years now. Never looked back. I use Trisquel.

Do you believe in free association? Do you think people should be forced to associate with people they do not want to? Suppose someone got off legally due to a technicality but anyone paying attention with common sense knew that person was guilty? Should I be forced to associate with such a person? Suppose one of those people applies for a job as science teacher for a middle school; should that middle school be forced to hire such a person?

Unfortunately that is true. This is why it is even MORE important for private individuals and organizations to do what they can with the limited nongovernmental power they have.

Judges and juries are for dolling out legal punishment, such as prison time. Private organizations run by ethcal adults can judge for themselves the very obvious connections and guilt or innocence of people they choose to hire or associate with (or not associate with).

If the communication was prior to Epstein's conviction I might be inclined to provide some leeway -- all else being equal. If the communication was after Epstein's conviction they should be very firm.

We need nationwide Ranked Choice Voting because I agree that many Democrats are far from perfect and, in an ideal world, I would love to vote for a third party or independent candidate, the reality is that; unless you happen to live in a state with Ranked Choice Voting (Maine, for example) you might indirectly be helping a Republican win. As imperfect as many Democrats are, they are usually far better and usually more sane than the Republicans.

Bondi chose the situation she currently is in. Epstein's victims did not.

Calling a local towing service is also an option.
