Let’s just say I’m glad I don’t have to vote against that dead motherfucker anymore!
undead.
He was born in 1942. Imagine all the wonderful things he could have done with his life!
1942 bc.
I'm sure he did plenty of wonderful things for his life. His life. Not the lives of the people he was paid to represent.

Or at the very least retired 25 years ago.
