I will never understand how it’s legal to hit your kids (in a lot of states) but it’s illegal to hit another adult (unless you’re a woman being abused by a man).

Dems should swap out Hakeem Jeffries with Jasmine Crockett. They need that kind of fire.

9. Injure them then tell them they can’t be healed bc they can’t afford it bc they are lazy 10. Have them watch all the democrats in heaven enjoy their afterlife doing all the things republicans have made up as wrong to justify their atrocities.

I hope the devil is taking notes on how to torture republicans in hell. If he needs help I can remind him. 1. Force them to bleed to death instead of aborting a baby 2. Rape is always the victims fault 3. Put them in small spaces with dirty food and water since they r basically immigrants in hell.
