Democratic Party members in Lubbock, Texas, have been getting blasted on Facebook for cropping First Lady Melania Trump out of a now-viral picture from Barbara Bush’s funeral.

Believe me when I say the worst commies are Texas commies.

Just bitter, hateful people for whom the happiness of others is an affront.

The reason for the cropping of the photo is pretty easy to figure out. Really with what the condition of the world is WGAF. Grow up and get real folks.

Thanks, I figure when it comes to the left, if you don’t expect anything and nothing shows up. You are never disappointed.

If the Left pulls these petty things in photos, you can imagine what they will pull when they get in power again.
