I can't remember what she was doing to prompt that response from me. But yes, that couple is the ultimate in the Karens of the world. Having them speak at the RNC was absolutely appropriate because those are the kind of people that support Donald Trump and represent his selfish, horrible, greedy, self-centered base. <br />Pass me that wine.

Those thugs with the guns have no part in politics and the young man that was interfering with the Indian man was suppose to be there also. I doesn't know if they were because I refuse to watch all this mess that's going on. I am literally tired of it. People are dying and out of jobs, no money, fighting all kind of illness and all he have to do is keep up shit. in 2016 he had every odd ass female sitting in the audience that said they had an affair with Bill Clinton. Bill wasn't even running but he did that to distract Hilary. I blame the ones that's over the selection for Presidential candidate. When he wouldn't show his financial records, they should have eliminated him from running for President. I am so tired and wake up daily to something new this orange idiot is doing. God help us get rid of this orange thing in November.

Clearly they overreacted to the presence of peaceful protesters in their neighbourhood. The way they described what had happened was totally at odds with what really took place.
