If it turns out the Clinton beej thing is true, and that's what Trump has been trying so desperately to hide this whole time, it would be deeply ironic given that it's ethically speaking one of the least bad things he's been accused of.

Kind of funny how some elements need a whole five syllables and then some have a name like "tin".

Been getting a lot of people asking about LA geography concerned that the images they see means the entire county is on fire. That's understandable.

I think it would be hilarious if Trump's new haircut was the thing that finally made him lose support from his base.
