In the parlance of the great Tyler Childers, if there ever come a time I got rabies, he’s high on my bitin' list
Stephen Miller: "The scandal is how Democrats & the left scarred the landscape of our country w/grotesque so-called modern art that celebrates ugliness ... very importantly, President Trump is making sure it's in the neo-classical design around which our nation's architecture has long been directed"
