The clown cars are filling up fast
Trump now says the Dana white thingy was "a joke". This from a man who is completely devoid of any semblance of a sense of humor. The only things that make this creature laugh are when a democrat falls down the Capitol steps or a dog gets run over next to one of his golf motels.
It seems Stephen Miller and Russell Vought came up with a plan way back in April for the country to be ruled by decree [dictatorship] if they lost the congress. We'll have to wait to find out if they are to try to install Donny as Emperor, or something.
