Not sure if this has been mentioned here yet, but Nikki Haley managed to come in second to “none of these candidates” in a recent election.

Useful idiots really cannot expect to be treated with courtesy.

If Tucker thought that this interview would be his springboard to the Vice Presidency under Trump, I guess he has another think coming. Trump may approve of people who are deferential to autocrats, but he’s hypervigilant to disassociate himself with losers.

Which is exactly what Vlad made clear that Tucker is.

In the article near the bottom, there’s a video embedded in a Twitter post with Mike showing off a selection of the products he’s selling. At the end, he holds up something that looks like an enormous pipe cleaner and I swear he says “here’s this brush here that cleans inside bowels”. It does look like it might work if you have a reasonable pain threshold or an assistant to do it while you’re passed out drunk.

From today’s Two Minutes Hate, Loser Donald claims he watched someone shoplift a refrigerator the other day, takes credit for killing the border bill that Moses Mike said had nothing to do with Trump, boasts that he did nothing to prevent mass shootings, and mumbles something about “dino-dollars” and “subsies”.

Where did he witness this? I can’t imagine he spends much time in retail stores. Plus how exactly do you shoplift a refrigerator?

Pennsylvania? What kind of Swiftie are you suggesting Rosieodonnelsylvania as the name that would most annoy Trump?
