This man lies about every single thing. When he opens his mouth, it's nothing but lies, lies, and more lies.

He is the kid in the back of the room, hollering pick me pick me. Guess feeling left out, what a shame what he has been allowed to do to this Country.

Really? The rest of us just feel relieved. But we aren’t there yet. It will be a wonderful day when we are rid of Obama although we will still have to live with his legacy.

President Bathhouse Choom has officially become a parody of himself.
Semmons couldn’t do it better. Or is this satire? It’s hard to tell anymore.

I hope Trump wins if only to cherish the anguish of liberals. Oh, yes, even as they squirm and lash out I will revel in their discomfort. Their ignorance and arrogance has caused so much death and spread too much misery.
