He gave him a nice little thing on TV, such grace. Woulda been weird if after that, he started hinting around that Obama was an undercover Muslim, and possibly the biblical antichrist😂😂 Good ole 2010s

It depends on your definition of ‘old’. The Universe is old. The earth has had life for billions of years. We will have good leaders again. Give it time. A period of revolution and change will right or change things, hopefully for the better. Being a student of history, the year of ’48 comes up, as does ’40 if you’re an American religious sort.
