72. My god, he has been there for less than 100 days

And has taken over after an Insurrection there are over 400 charges and another couple hundred investigations going on. That alone seems to be a lot of territory in 100 days, then you have to realize that every step he takes is into a pile of shit left behind by brilliant legal minds like the Keebler elf Jeff Sessions, that boob Matt Whittaker, that no good fat fuck Barr and then that disgrace to a Harvard degree Rosen. What a crew of misfits. 100 days ( not even) is just not enough to clean up that kind of mess
