Drunky’s detached, coolly cynical, above-it-all shtick completely fell apart the election. I guess all the libtards being mean to Donny Anusface was just too much for him. Poor guy, maybe we should start a gufundme for him. ---

Once, instead of a tip I was expecting, someone gave me a miniature bible. I did not call the news team to investigate. ---

More of the Rove school of politics, now being practiced by the proles, even if unwittingly. Identify your own greatest vulnerabilities, then loudly accuse the other side of the same thing first so they can’t effectively use it against you. I.e. “The \*Democrats \*are the real racists!” “YOU’RE a puppet!” ---
