at a Hispanic Heritage celebration yesterday, Preznit Fuckwit didn't just do a racism. he made up a brand new racism, on the spot — one that didn't even make sense. and that, my friends, is quite the talent. thank you for your attention to today's post. link is here: bit.ly/4hjAHqE
Donny is like stupid and racist had a baby, and then repeatedly dropped it on its head.

This abject imbecile should not be president. It’s a waste of his singular ability to be incoherent as fuck. He should be the host of a game show called Donny Says Shit.

I’m talking about a show where Donny blurts out whatever dumbfuckery pops into his head, and contestants compete to come up with the most logical explanation

A few hundred noncitizen votes are a national scandal. But when states reject hundreds of thousands of ballots from eligible voters, it’s business as usual
One state rejected ballots because some voters failed to include their mother’s maiden name on the back of the return envelope.
