It's absolutely absurd the way he is being canonized. In my area folks are organizing candlelight vigils and motorcycle runs for him. They're treating him like he was MLK and JFK and Ghandi rolled into one.

**** VPOTUS JD Vance Will Fill in for Charlie Kirk's Podcast on Monday ****

The beatification of a good-for-nothing, spiteful, hatemongering college dropout continues. And the ever-vacationing VPOTUS has nothing better to do? Americans are paying the VPOTUS salary so he can spew hatred for several hours on Monday.
