    Reading about Trump making a stop at a bodega in NYC where a person was stabbed and the stabby stabber was let off by comrade commissar Bragg esteemed member of the CPUSA left wing of the UNI.

    Brilliant! And the crowd goes wild as Trump gets some priceless free press and what if the Donfather is not down with the UNI?

    Meanwhile Brandon gets not even a second glance at a WaWa (?) in the glorious peoples republic of Shitholedelphia.

    What a sad state of affairs in these constructs of the white male patriarchy cities.
