Who would want to be his used condoms, or God knows what he owns. Also due to Barry’s worshipers they will probably snatch than buy it. Hey, it’s free Obama stuff.

I made the long trip to D.C. to watch the funeral procession for Reagan. And the next day stood in line for 9 hours to go through the Capitol Rotunda. I will never do that for another President. None of them still alive has earned enough respect from me to do that.

For his funeral I opened this bottle from 1989 with the upside down sheep representing the fall of the wall and a world turned upside down. I still have the empty bottle as a souvenir.

Mouton in french is sheep. Starting in 1945 the winery famously commissioned each year an artist to offer an artistic interpretation of their wine label. Often sheep are incorporated into it although not always. You can see all the labels here

The Left still hasn’t figured Reagan’s true worth out.

In 2050, they’ll still be struggling to figure out why Trump won and changed this nation immeasurably for the better.

Hey, it’s the Left. It’s what they do.
