    What’s this accidentally stuff?

    He’s firing everybody indiscriminately and intentionally. That’s not an accident.

    Just because he regrets doing it doesn’t mean he didn’t do it on purpose the first time.

      100%

      I regretted setting my hand of fire with hand sanitizer.

      I did it on purpose, fully knowing fire burns.

      I just didn’t think it would hurt so much before I could plunge my hand into the sink.

      I did it intentionally, it wasn’t an accident. I just wasn’t prepared for the consequences at 11.

      This administration has 0 excuse.
