Bush League Republicans are Assistant Democrats.
PLEASE STOP re-electing them!
And there you have it.
The Deep State is gonna have their war.
Leave it to McConnell to cuckle himself to the foolishness of Biden.
Right there is your “Stupid son of a bitch”.
so did Biden tell Mitch what he’s really up to ,LOL
‘cuckle’
Ha! What a great choice of word.
RE: moving in the right direction....
Toward the trash dumpsters. Don’t stop now, Brandon.
This geriatric old turdle needs to get rolled onto his back and kicked into the road.
Worried that the Republicans might be too successful during the mid-terms
NO, send the dumb ass turtle to Ukraine.
Turtle giving aid and comfort.
not one armed guard with orders to defend America’s borders, but a whole bunch of American troops being sent to Eastern Europe’s borders??
i say no!
Big fan of Doug Jones and The Biden Gang.
China brain....
Nobody knows which direction is Brandon moving!
So, maybe, he may move in right direction sometimes?!
Who knows?
He is known to be wrong in almost all foreign policy decisions, but, heck, even the blind chicken...
Yup
The Deep State likes its blood money they make grinding us and our loved ones to sausage in foreign lands.
