(2,679 posts)4. You would think with all these republicians in charge down here
They would have banned hurricanes, tropical storms and or depressions, from all the theme parks years ago. That idiot alien of a gov bans the mention of climate change why can't he do the same thing with hurricanes and the like?
I bet the don of cheeto would save us, all by himself even. He'd build a wall. Believe him, it would be yuge, and he would get his people, the best people and they'd make the best deal, he'd end hurricanes day one with in the first hour of his presidency. And M O O N that spells bat shit crazy
Some how I think he would just blame it on Hillary and the Liberal media.
Time to go get batteries and water.
