17. It wasn't a "gag book"

It was given to Mike as a gag gift. It's obvious that it was meant to get a laugh from him and never published. The quotes are unsubstantiated and undocumented.

You're going to hear a lot of awful things about any candidate the Dems dare put up. Most of it will be untrue, but if you buy into the nonsense the Russians win again.

Of course Hillary pimped out under aged girls who were delivered along with a pizza. Was that the kind of candidate we wanted?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
