So this is what you get when you are an openly racist president: an openly disastrous government. The shutdown was the direct result of Trump's shithole outburst. I know Democrats are fretting about whether they are playing their hand the right way with this shutdown and the re-opening of the government. Let me just say... Continue Reading →
