I’m in for the viking funeral

When I think of a prestigious, elusive honor, I think of the WWE Hall of Fame

Oh Thank God THAT’S over and we can move forward and never speak of any of this again.

And symbols are really good for playing on public opinion, which is exactly what Trump is going to do to rile up his base and feed his own ego. If he hasn’t already he is going to be all over tweeting how this totally exonerates him and how Mueller’s investigation should be shut down immediately because this means the…

Man, talk about an act that has not aged well.
