    If the Federal Government is shutdown all of the secret service agents should be sent home. I bet Mike Johnson would end the shutdown really quickly if he and trump couldn’t party while everyone else is struggling to feed their kids

    He showed up on the broadcast and didn’t seem to say anything too bad. Sounded like your ordinary senile grandfather or uncle. A bit confused but held it together.

    I can’t find a longer video than what’s in the article. It’s pretty harsh. I had to check since sometimes it’s not as bad as they say. What is he reading?

    Edit: I had to do the thing, it’s in the article:

      Bonespurs’ tongue should have burst into flames, him reading that oath to others is… rich.

    It’s sort of amusing that the profound psychological issues that make him the most corrupt POTUS in history, the most self-absorbed POTUS in history, the most dishonest POTUS in history and the most deranged POTUS in history also make him the most tone-deaf POTUS in history.

    The majority of American citizens did not vote for him. The majority of citizens were busy. I’m pretty sure about 85 million Americans didn’t vote. The majority is silent.

      So… 85 million Americans need to experience pain before they realize sitting out the election is a bad idea. Not bad, they’re getting there…
