85. Excellent wrap up, betsuni..

Sep 2019

like Chuckie said to Sen John Kennedy today.. ".. don't gaslight us, sir..".

Obama had a majority for two years and did not transform anything. (Of course ignore that he had a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate for all of four months and ten days.)

Just where does he think he's going with this?
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
