So when a kid asks a teacher "what's adultery?" the teacher should say "it's a sin the man who told us to put this on the wall committed that made his wife mad enough to divorce him."

No surprise whatsoever, the number of abandoned babies in TX has skyrocketed. Weirdly, the number of people willing to adopt these babies, many of whom are not white, has NOT kept up with surge. GOP policy is always stupid and cruel. Always.

And when the Democrats win the House and Senate in 2026, he will use them and ICE to enforce his Executive Orders declaring that election "rigged" and arrest people who were duly elected when they show up to take office. Count on it.
