Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filling an IV bag from a murky puddle near Trump National's sixth tee. "The president needs parameciums," he tells the assembled media. "It's the only treatment proven to work in real testing." His golf cart is piled high with dozens of dead birds.

Said it before & I'll say it again. All you have to do is call yourself God fearing/Christian & you will be AMAZED at how easy it is to fleece these fucking people out of everything they own.
