I live in a rural area-there are several people with cannon out here-a neighbor recently bought a cannon from a place online, and assembled it-he hasn’t fired it yet, but it is pointed at the riverbank and ready-if DJT wins, he says he will load and fire it, and he’ll invite all neighbors-bring your own drinks...

It’s been so long since I couldn’t pass my cannon background
check... I can’t remember all the details.

Neither can anyone else.

Biden, brain dead, and he’s not coming back.
