Waves possess the shore

Endless dance of time and tide

Nature’s gentle roar

Happy Viewing my dear friends

Where there are no expectations for The Orange Menace…
And, the Vice President is expected to be perfect.

The double standard is maddening.😠😠

Of course, the MSM is not expected to fact check him😒😒
Because…why would we expect them to do their ACTUAL JOB😠😠

You said Harris wouldn’t release her policies

She just did

You said she wouldn’t do an interview

Well she did

You said she couldn’t energize Dems

Well she is

You said she couldn’t raise money

She raised $631 MILLION

So where are y’all gonna move the goalposts to now?! 🙄

एक सिरफिरे ने आने जाने वालों पर पत्थर फेंके, 

जिन्होंने अपने पत्थर तुरंत तेजी से उस पर फेंके…

और मैं यहाँ बस यही विचार करते रह गया खड़ा, 

कि दोनों में से फिर कौन था वास्तव में पागल बड़ा…

🕳️🕳️🕳️🕳️🕳️🕳️

A madman hurled stones at those who passed,

They returned with their own, quick and fast…

And I stand here, pondering, under the sun,

Which of the two was truly the insane one…
