After that lead-in of slobbery pablum, I really don’t feel like reading the rest. And the excerpt did not match the headline.

It’s gift of gab. Everyone knew BJ was no messiah. Paper thin resume Obama made them want him to be one.

In the case of the Democrat Party I believe their leader would be the anti-Christ.

I have seen someone suggest the first Democrat to figure out that combining Trump’s Nationalism with their Socialism wins everything.
