I agree with the author of this specific article‚"It’s Still A Mad‚ Mad California" that California is by far the most contentious and over-regulated state in America. The author brings up a good point: those who convey passionate beliefs against Trump and his policies‚ believe they are fighting for the poor’s rights‚ end up as hypocrites.

‘Alas he’s mad’ (3:4:108) How far do you agree with the statement that Hamlet is mad? I disagree with the statement that Hamlet is mad due to all the evidence throughout the play in which I believe Shakespeare uses hidden phrases and hints to suggest Hamlet is only pretending to be mad.
