I am so tired of all these FoxNews watchin republitard idoits supporting the nazis at ICE. They are ratarded and I hate them all
You sound like the smart one.
A majority of American voters voted for this. You don’t like the policies they like. Doesn’t make you smart nor does it make them dumb. Then again, Dems liked slaves picking their cotton. And before you go nasty, I’m a UCSB alum with an MBA on top, so skip the stereotyping DARVO attempt. I did ag field work summers to save for UCSB, btw.
every post just have to talk about how smart you are, how you have an MBA. What a blow hard.
