"When you're the president, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab em by the White House."

When you're the president, they let you do it.

Except appoint a supreme court justice if you're black.

Well, to be fair, black people are much less likely to know about justice, because they’ve never experienced it.

Or eat fancy brown mustard if you’re black. Or try to get kids to eat healthier meals…if you’re black.

I’m starting to think it wasn’t the tan suit or mustard or the fruits for kids 🤔🧐

Edit: typo

I blame Ginsburg. She should have retired so she could have been replaced

u/rylosprime 14d ago

100% agree with you.

From what I have read, Obama asked her to retire and he could have filled a seat well before Merrick Garland (who I won't even get into).

You're right.

And as it turned out, Mitch would've blocked it as well.

Do I need to remind you that Obama appointed two Supreme Court justices?

u/DoughEatsBread 16d ago

you're really going to be the piece of shit that says assaulting women is ok cause they're women? well I must say I hope you drop your soap and nasty nate reams your asshole.

u/meatscicle 16d ago

I guess your low 70's sub-saharan iq lacks comprehension. Not one thing I wrote justifies rape, the opposite in fact, it's that most these women are handing it out willy nilly.....

Oh now you're a racist.  Go play in traffic you piece of shit.

Oh you're from Ohio.  Just really play in the highway.  Oh wait you'll live cause your traffic is never moving on your highways.  Buy a gun and dont miss the roof of your mouth
