Joe Biden is a miserable failure

Don't you just love how all these so-called virtuous "law" people who plot against President Trump turn out in the end to be low-life degenerates who sleep together while plotting on the taxpayers done? Fani Willis and her unqualified prosecutor lover is disgraced FBI agents Lisa Page and Peter Strzok 2.0 on steroids.

Joe Biden is a miserable failure

Fani Willis, the Fulton county district attorney prosecuting President Donald Trump over his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia hired a lead prosecutor who she was sleeping with who never tried a felony case, paid him nearly $1M in Georgia tax dollars, who then proceeded to buy plane tickets for vacations in her name. Pretty much par for the course for these corrupt demoncraps. And the Georgia case, the jewel in the frothing leftist crown, goes down in flames....

White liberals who seek to be racially humiliated is a sexual kink. Change my mind.

Only 13% of Americans think they're doing ok financially since the Briben' Crime family took over. Joe Briben's approval rating is the lowest it's ever been for him, and the lowest in modern history. This was the man who supposedly got the "most votes ever in history", beating an incumbent president whose own voter base grew from 2016 to 2020, among minorities no less. Right. Sure. There's no pandemic and massive ballot harvesting operations this time around. Good luck, leftist scum.
