Just another day in Donald Trump’s America.
Are we great again yet?
Ya know, it’s a shame to say, but if something happens predictably every day, it is no longer breaking news.
As opposed to a “passive shooter?” I mean, what’s up with that phrase, anyway?
I think that means it’s still ongoing?
There is another story in the news today about a 15 year old who killed his 18 year old brother with a shotgun, because he (the 15 year old) was “romantically interested” in his brother’s girlfriend.
