The leftists are handing the election to Trump whether they realize it or not.
All this in spite of Biden’s heroic leadership. -sarc-

Bill Peduto is hiding under his desk. And Wolf is too busy closing down indoor dining at restaurants and hair salons.

They aren’t maintaining social distancing. What if they get the virus?

Ya know, these people really ARE white supremacists. The only black people they'll deign to recognize are ones they can use for political purposes.

I thought they waited until nightfall. Maybe a new all day trend.

Easier to see them, even with masks.

Haven't seen that many hairy pits and legs in one place in ages. I doubt the guys shave, either. 😆
