@dalfen@mstdn.social Ah, the latest variation of Orange Bozo’s “I’ve got such a deal for you!” 🔥🧟♂️ We can’t even say “Go away dipshit” and expect that to happen, in any kind of a timely fashion. He’s dug in like a tick, with a herd of blood sucking Repugs cheering him on. Pain seems to be required for the correction to take hold.
