ColdPhaedrus @coldphaedrus.bsky.social · 20/12/2025Elise Stefanik is a moron. If you want further proof that educated is not the same as smart, then look no further than the Harvard grad who took one look at how Trump treats people he no longer has a use for, and thought “That won’t be me though”. Good riddance. 110
