It doesn't pull it punches and is somewhat harse, but quite accurate. This was written at a time I wasn't sure if we could win and I was gearing up for a lifelong struggle. I now know we can and will win this fight. We will restore the #TrEU. This was written with raw emotion and abandon. The final post will be a…
