Thanks for the laugh.
Great start to the day.
Will this turd even qualify for “straight to video” status? Disney will plater it all over their low-watched streaming service.
That's why it's done; to destroy respect for America's
history, culture, achievements and in particular the
white population that founded and built the nation.
So we had the Tin man needing a oil, the Scarecrow needing a brain, the Lion needing a Heart...
Wonder what the new characters will be needing? Oh doctor !
