Of course you would say this. You are a liberal/progressive.

Us conservatives love what he is doing, providing results. And you might want to stop calling him pedo.

We have Biden on video smelling children and inappropriately touching them. Not to mention what his daughter said he did to her while in the shower with her.

No surprise mooch is a pedo protector.

Calling what this administration is doing "results" only proves what a stupid sack of s*^% mooch is.

That's not going to happen.

He is a pedo protector.

Much like you. Only much worse. He's the OG pedo protector.

You are just a wannabe.

You people are the ones standing up for an adjudicated sexual predator. Why do Trump supporters have the attention span/memory of turnips?

Us conservatives love what he is doing,

Increasing inflation? Increasing prices? Increasing unemployment? Stealing billions of tax payers dollars? Funding his own personal Gestapo to attack American cities? Deregulating environmental protections? Selling off federal land to foreign governments? Accepting brides from foreign governments? Attacking allied nations? Starting unnecessary wars? Demolishing the White House? Ignoring the judiciary? Shutting down Congress? Sucking Putin's dick? Presiding from MarALago? Destroying the federal government? Destroying the free press? Raping children? Raping America? Rage tweeting at 3 in the morning? Filling the federal government with drunken losers?

What are the odds the American Heart Association is paying the factories to "spew" tiny amounts of toxic air?
