What about blaming the Republicans in congress, like yourself, who refused to vote on the Democrats boarder control policy this year because it would’ve “given the Democrats a win”? What about actually trying to fix problems rather than perpetuate them just to try and get elected? Seems like weird behavior to me.
It wasn’t even the democrats bill. It was a bipartisan bill and I believe it was even sponsored by a republican.
He’s so weird
“I’ll never forget the time I convinced myself that I was gay. I was eight or nine, maybe younger, and I stumbled upon a broadcast by some fire-and-brimstone preacher. The man spoke about the evils of homosexuals, how they had infiltrated our society, and how they were all destined for hell absent some serious repenting.

“JD, do you want to suck dicks?” she said
… as you do with 8-9 year olds.
He missed the most important part!
“Then you’re not gay. And even if you did want to suck dicks, that would be okay,” she replied. “God would still love you.”
I did not expect the swearing granny to be the based one in the story
There was a time when i would’ve assumed this was satire
Hang on… It’s not ?
Are you really that surprised at this point?
