No one. This silver idiot is a lunatic. If I was a porcupine...I’d be a porcupine. I realize that if she weren’t a chronic liar, criminal, pervert and loser she wouldn’t be so. However...

I was thinking Silver is behind the times.

The new talking point is that Putin stole the election for Trump with Russian hackers.

C'mon Nate. Get with it and regurgitate the latest MSM/DNC line.

Geez, Team Clinton isn't missing a beat to position her for another run in 2020. Guess the rest of the Dems are cool with that.

“Clinton ‘almost certainly’ would be president if not for the fact that she’s a drunken Socialist!”

All better. :)
