To be clear, John Fetterman didn’t “accidentally” call himself a lifelong fascist republican, it didn’t slip out by mistake, he was stating truth, he was a MAGA plant from the very beginning and I can’t wait until Pennsylvania voters toss the disgraceful treasonous fraud out of office.

A reminder that KKK criminal Ken Paxton offered a 1 day prison sentence in Texas for a child rapist and a judge gave that rapist a 60 day sentence which ended up being reduced to 29 days for good behavior. Ken provides protection for pedophiles as well as crooks.

It’s not the Gulf of America. We don’t have a Department of War, unless you count the war we’re losing. Canada is not the 51st state. There’s no such thing as the Lake of America, The Strait of America or the Trump Center. You are not 6’3” and 225 lbs, You’re demented.
