- I like presidents who haven't raped anyone.
- I like presidents who don't have pieces of the country on ebay.
- After renaming the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America," Donald Trump now wants to rename the Persian Gulf to the "Arabian Gulf?" 🙄

- Good morning friends ☀️☕️🫶 Happy Wednesday! 3 men did escape from Alcatraz in 1962. It’s not known for sure if they survived the cold shark waters. I think some type of test should have to be passed to run for president. He doesn’t even know what the Declaration of Independence is.
- He is looking more and more like a tired, old, confused man. I wish there were REAL results from mental & physical exams.
