Lmao. The new GOP position is that as long as the crime is blatant and in the open, it’s fine. Absolute clown party.

Hey guys trust me on something. The people that are in the Trump admin, honest to god they are weak children still mentally stuffed in a locker in high school. Leave them there, don’t be afraid of these kids
