Next comes the ironing board.
He should have hired someone to do his laundry...then he could claim he created 100,001 jobs.
Mitt is exposing himself as the desperate, shallow, rich “I-deserve-it” brat I always suspected he was.
FYI, I just voted... it’s a lazy rainy Saturday and the turn out (here at least) is extremely low.
Blue jeans and a white, button-down oxford shirt is such a COOL look. It makes him look one of us common folks.
This is how out of touch they are. They must think this will go over big! Will someone tell them they should be embarrassed?
Yeah, what happened to the little cup that came with the detergent? You supposed to use that, Mitt.
Boxers or briefs, Mitt?
An illegal that got deported?
Toilet lid?
