Pretty swampy Donny, pretty swampy.

Slowly but surely, trump’s going to become irrelevant. He’ll lose 2020. He’ll do his “racist rally” thing. Other, more relevant republicans, will become the Make The Republicans Great Again movement. Joker trump will become, more and more, America’s Joke President. Nothing more
