Way to go Mikey. There are some really NASTY tasks out in the real world and there are folks who actually do those tasks. Takers would never be seen doing some (or any) of these things. To some people, say jojo biden, work is a 3 letter word.

/s kinda. WHAT? Mike is gay? Oh, I keep forgetting that it’s being pushed as the norm now.?! If that’s the case (the libs keep making) why all the celebration when someone “comes out”? If it’s (supposedly) the norm then no big deal. Weird stuff out there. Sarc off!

Why not 1600 Penn Ave?? He has exactly the onscreen personality we need AND is way more qualified than 0bama, even 5 years in. No, I’m not kidding

LOL! I thought there was some correlation between clay aiken and Mike Rowe. Misunderstood and corrected. Mostly our current politicians are pretty much the same with a few exceptions. Seems like a lot of them “go along to get along”.

Think of the Workers,
Hopelessly trapped in Job Lock.
Does Mike Rowe hate them?
