So long as it remains in Trump’s possession, strange and inexplicable things will start happening at the White House.

I was on fb and someone commented on a political post saying “let’s ban Carney”

A guy chimes in with “1 bullet problem solved”

I reported the comment to fb and they came back to me and said they didn’t see anything wrong with the comment.

This is a big reason why we are where we are.
