I took up painting a couple of years ago. As we age, I think it's important to try new things, to exercise our brains. This is called "No Name Creek" and it's where I grew up, and, yes, that is the actual name of the creek.

Nobody, absolutely nobody, hates trump supporters more than trump himself. He doesn't give one single fuck about any of them unless they can help him. Charlie is no longer here to help him and that's where the relationship ends for trump.
Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

If you want to give your opinion on gun violence. Please post real victims of political gun violence.
Do not continue to promote someone who wasted the life he got and the privilege that this society gifted him with to promote hate, misogyny, racism and violence let him fade into obscurity.
