E! contracts?

DRAG her. If we’re not safe, there is no one sacred in that administration, either.

This is the problem right now, and why Trump is winning this war for the actual power in America: people are still dealing with him in civil and normal terms, as if both sides of this fight were operating inside the same boundaries of democracy and public accountability. As this Senator is doing, expecting that such a

The gif that immediately comes to mind:

Yeah. Already happening:

Let’s be real, if he thought he could use them as slave labor in his hotels, he’d take them.
