Loving @mjfree.bsky.social Morgan Freeman's posts .I also imagine hearing his voice in my head as I read his posts.
We are stronger than Trump. He's a weak little man who can't spell, read or complete sentences. He only knows how to go up if you go down, go left if you right, and go white if you go Black.

His pea brain says: Obama bad, me good.
Fuck him. Fuck maga.
