[Thank you Mr. President…](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rv8r0h4tNaU) …for giving America back to the people…the people who can’t spell it. …for reminding us that freedom’s just another word for stuff. …for letting us be proud…not just of our vets, but our wars. …for reminding us that our flag stands for something…something libs and blacks don’t understand or care about. …for teaching us that in America, a $7 an hour barista can be part of the elite…if she has an education. …for giving us a First Lady we can value as a woman…because she’s 24 years younger than you, keeps her yap shut, and has posed nude. …for giving us the security to know our tax dollars will be wisely spent…on job creators, not job creation. …for making the world’s greatest military the world’s greatest times two…three…ten. …for reminding us that Christianity is not what you do, but who you are…white, tribal, and prejudiced. …for teaching us that it is not just our achievements, but our resentments, that make America great…and that being true to our legacy of achievements and resentments is what will make America great again. ---
