I worry that we risk losing the hard-won gains that have made America a safer and more prosperous place.
The ‘Doom’ thing is to be able to come at things with a different point of view. I decided the mask would just add to the mystique of the character as well as make Doom stand out.

Politicisation of terrorism for narrow gains is not good for society in general and the country in particular.
We all say that we want to repeal Obamacare, and we would all love a clean, full repeal. But the truth is, sometimes it’s kind of like making sausage. You have to do it one step at a time.
