This ‘morning-after’ of the presidential debate between Harris and Trump last night is leaving conservatives with a doozy of a hangover, complete with headaches, loss of appetite and an overall feeling of nausea.

Now, many wait to see how long Mexico becomes the next Venezuela. Go beyond the headlines…
