That's right bitch. Sit down and shut the fuck up.

I bet you felt all manly and powerful just yesterday, didn'tcha? Was it worth it?

I'd wager you already know the answer to that question and you are now very well aware of what a huge tactical mistake you made.

We already knew you didn't have any hand in this situation. Now we know you have no backbone either.

And Trump knows this too.

You shouldn't have opened your big fucking mouth if you didn't have the balls to back your empty words up.

Now you get to see what the price is for writing checks your pathetic government can't cash.

Tick Tock
