Totoally believable these days. Probably jets around with Clinton Foundation money half the time now.
Even then I knew he was only a speed bump. He was still better than Gore and Kerry. Absolutely no loyalty toward him. FUGBs.
So, write in Cruz. Or Jen. Never vote for evil Hillary.
Surprise surprise the GOPe globalists voted for the globalist...
And this is why the GOPe must be destroyed
They’ve confirmed my view that Hillary Clinton wasn’t running to continue the Obama legacy. She was running to continue the Bush legacy.
