Day 242:
Willful Ignorance is the same things as Stupid
You would have to be a god damn moron to believe that Trump and his family and friends are not criminal assholes. You would have to have your head so far up your own ass or being paid a large sum of money to think otherwise.
If you are a proud Trump supporter, you are either being lied to, or you are lying to yourself.
