He should have hosted it and served pork ribs wrapped in bacon.
May I offer my warm greetings to Muslims in hell
Winning Bigly.
Maybe we won’t get that tacky green fountain out in front on St. Pat’s any more either.
Thanx. Thought so but did not know for sure.
1st time in 20 years we have had a President with some common sense apparently.
You get the chance to go golfing and all this other kind of stuff. How come you dont have time for a population of your society that needs some assistance?
You need assistance? Get your assistance from the country you and/or your ancestors came from.
LOL! Good one!
Like that Muzzie Kisser G W Bush.
I inject pig insulin into my belly three times a day.
For Ramadan maybe he should serve up a nice lunch for them every day of that month.
Your afterlife will be blissfully free of virgins.
