The lovely Dem culture of corruption.
If you’re in the target crowd, you certainly don’t go for the food, or even for the company. You go to curry favor. And, since Nancy is unlikely to talk to you personally, that must mean you go to get your name on a list for access. It is extortion masked as political contribution.
Representative government at its finest.
I’d waste my money cause having to look at her over the breakfast table would make me lose my breakfast.
Boy the price of hooker sure went up,Clinton kicks dog.
