34. I'm sure impeachment of Trump is why no Democratic presidential candidate has won ND since LBJ.

And it's because all of them have ignored soybeans. And because Democrats go into ND and campaign on nothing but gun control and civil rights, including abortion rights.

Yep, that must be it.

The fact that no Democratic candidate has won the white male vote since passage of the Civil Rights Act is purely coincidental. #IT'S TEH SOYBEANS!!1!
