Thank you Allison for your military service and your hard work bringing all of us your unwavering patriotic spirit and courage! You are a true inspiration for all of us who truly care about this country and our reputation in the world as a nation that values human dignity and respect. Pete Keg-breath couldn’t carry your water. He and his daddy, Trump, are birds of a feather that need to have their wings clipped forever!
Thank you, Allison. Congratulations on your nomination.💪
