who will have plenty of great ideas when he gets his new promotion and helps get rid of Mueller.

Please arrange that the replacement nominee Senator for OK to be an ardent practitioner of bestiality and that there are hundreds of pictures that will be discovered two weeks before the election.
With his defeat and the election of two Democratic Senators from Alabama and Oklahoma I will return attending Church every Sunday.
