May 22

Billy is a major maga who calls into a lot of progressive shows and thinks he is the smartest guy in the world and the orange hitler is the greasiest president ever. Today he said that the Democrats are the terrorists in this country and when Thom asked him about the January 6th insurrectionists he eluded to that they were the real patriots. The guy is so far gone if his orange monster shot an innocent person on 5th avenue he would be ok and say that the convicted felon had a legal right. They can no longer discern reality nor right vs wrong. The cult is strong with these people and it’s sad they will end up having their lives ruined by this abomination of a “pResident”.

I hope and pray we survive this reign of terror the next 4 years.

That said it will be interesting seeing the powerful storms hitting this country and it is hurting the areas they live in and no government help is going to be there for them because their orange monster only cares about himself and attaining more power.
