Yes, simply ignore them. They will not be missed anyhoo.
SO WOULD IT BE WRONG TO FIND OUT WHAT PRODUCTS THEY ENDORSE AND BOYCOTT THEM
“Snowflakes”
No. Just flakes.

Aaron Hernandez stated today that he too will not be going to the Whitehouse.

If HRC had won , I would have expected som Trump voters to have skipped as well. So what? How ARE attending
Brady has already said the reason he skipped the Obama invite was the team was only given 10 days notice. He had a family commitment. Think it was a sister’s wedding.
Well, haters gonna hate.
