‘The President Of The United States Prefers To Shut Government Down’

And he is proud of doing it too, I saw him saying it on TV! What’s more tomorrow he will climb in his non-shutdown Air Force 1, and escorted by his also non-shutdown SS bodyguards, for his taxpayer paid vacation on his own hotel.

I watched this live on local news in the DMV. Chuck and Nancy nailed it. He might want to delay that AF1 flight tomorrow to Merry Whore Go.

Who knew it was Mrs. Claus we were waiting for all along?

I want to make her the President of the United States.
