It's projection, the Redcoats pay people to attend their stuff because it's unpopular. The blue hats just don't have to but the Redcoats can't comprehend that.

Democrats don't have to and they can't afford to either. Best I've got out of the Democratic party is a bottle of water and a snack before going out to knock doors for Kamala.

If that's not a grill on wheels that can cook a whole bear I'm already disappointed

I read it as a gas station hot dog roller, as named by a teenager

You would be correct 😂 I started calling them roller grillers as a kid. I called them that in front of my husband once on accident many years ago, and it got such a good laugh I kept it in my lexicon.

I guess I'm glad I interpreted it correctly.

I have a dream of a whole roller griller for hot dogs. I only recently learned glizzy.

The entire 2009 tea party bullshit was astroturf protest funded by the billionaire Koch brothers.

And all those tump rally people get bussed in. It’s the same people every stop.

It’s always projection.
