Good thing he doesn't own a potato farm, or he'd be screwed.

Good thing he doesn't own a potato farm or he'd be peanuts? That doesn't make any sense! 😉

They also care that you swear allegiance to Trump. Republicans are happy to prosecute those who don't

this adds up:
everything he does is toxic.
his complexion is fluorescent orange.

I'd call him a chud but honestly I think most chuds are better than him. and I despise chuds.
not a bad hypothesis.
