We make fun of her, but when you think about it you realize she fits right in with the rest of the Congress.

She has now replaced “blonde jokes” online.

This new crop of dims and the fake media are showing the desperation of their cause, by becoming SILLY.

That’s the only word for it. They are pushing idiotic ideas with a straight face. That’s either silly or insane.
