And now has his eye on the rest of the country! Not to mention, an entire generation of kids is going to grow up with an inaccurate and biased knowledge of history!

His obsession will be his cruel sadistic downfall. Hard to imagine operating with a brain like his. Add that to his bent shitcan personality and I don’t want him moving to my neighborhood.
