Within four years, America will be a healthy country … if President Trump is elected and honors his word.

Well… that’s a pretty easy statement to make. He could have thrown in free property on the moon for every American while he was at it.

And everyone gets a free pony.

But who will pay for the ponies?

Here's the first on a four part series. You're in for a wild ride involving assassinations, threatening a cop with a hawk, taking psychedelics next to a slaughter pit, and brain worms in the amazon.

I fully guffawed at that portion of the story.

I'm now thinking that Kenny from South Park was just an inside joke representing the Kennedy family.

It takes one day. One day. At the end of that day, if they’re guilty, which they /always are/ … within one day, that person is executed.

That is rather chilling.

This is a hilarious saga that is further bankrupting the party of pedophiles.

And Kennedy’s hour-long speech today was nearly as meandering and filled with lies as any average hour of Trump.

Can you imagine having to sit through an hour of his voice?

Lmao this sideshow is FASCINATING. I genuinely have no idea what the worm will command RFK Jr to do next, and it’s keeping me on the edge of my seat.
