President Lumpy Fathead needs to stop badmouthing freedom of speech and get on board with supporting the Constitution.
Without freedom of speech, his lying ass would be rotting in jail.

I don't know who besides the White House needs to hear this, but spraying cheap, Chinese-made foam wall decorations with gold spray paint isn’t classy, it’s tacky as hell and prodigiously embarrassing

Having wrapped up the award for Dumbest President ever, Trump has now set his sights on a new goal: Most Corrupt President ever.
He's off to a strong start with his market manipulation tactics earlier this week, and his kickback tariff forgiveness scheme now in play.

On this day in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson told Gov. Wallace he would federalize the National Guard to protect Selma marchers. Alabama refused to defend justice, so the White House stepped in. A defining moment where federal power was used to uphold civil rights. #Selma
