The Demonicrats are so evil they want taxpayers to fund the slaughter of unborn infants overseas as well as in the U.S.

Hell cannot be made too hot for the homecoming of the Demonicrats.

"I doubt that it will get to Trump."

I guess I don't have the confidence in the senate Republicans that you do. I do hope you are right.
