Why would anyone listen to a two-time LOSER like Kankles?!?!

She blew $1.5 BILLION dollars in 2016 and Trump kicked her giant lard@ss spending less than half that amount. She is absolutely clueless and incompetent.

Is she finally conceding that she lost?

Could it be that she’s finally at the Acceptance Stage?

There is no Democrat who can defeat President Trump. He will be re-elected in a landslide victory. God has shed His Grace on America, yet again!
