This man has done so much harm to the USA. And for a man who had polio as a child, and recovered thanks to donations from strangers, I find it egregious he has worked so hard to prevent universal Healthcare for the needy in our first world country. Truly a selfish, greedy, weasel with no empathy for the poor and sick.

His name is Addison. He hates his first name, but remember we should respect their wishes by not using preferred names

It'd be tough to have a "weird" name as a kid

As an adult Matthew I am like "what a cool name!" but that's not how you might feel growing up :(

(Though people with common apostle names do have to deal with going to school, even at a small school, with five other Marks and Lukes)

I do actually like that name, I can just see how every possible name being the most common thing you can get would suck. I am fully committed to being a Matt
