If he was born in Chicago then why does he still have an accent?
Check his status anyway, just to irritate him then.

He doesn't have any accent other than a Chicago one.
He's of Puerto Rican descent, BORN IN CHICAGO and Puerto Rican, who move to the mainland, are the same as citizens born in any of the states!
You go check his "status" ( don't post uneducated/stupid crap! ), or just believe me, because I do know what I'm talking about!

Who is going to come out and accuse him of rape, and how many?

Rats fleeing the ship before it sinks into the swamp, I’d say. Pretty funny, in a perverse sort of way. I’d be surprised if every single one of these sudden retirement members weren’t up to their necks in slime.

If the abuse settlements are made public I am wagering that he will be prominent among the participants. That is what powerful communists do, they exploit their constituents.

“He was born in Chicago !”
He actually had to learn Spanish after he knew English.
Then he had to come up with an Hispanic accent to make it sound like English was his second language.
He never lied about it...seems he enjoyed fooling the idiots who kept voting for it.

Consider this: Maybe he is stepping down to prepare for a 2020 presidential run?
