12. OMG! and WTF!

This makes me literally sick to my stomach. Who the hell told him he could do this? Isn't this something Congress would have to improve, or we'd get to vote on? Not that he would listen either way. I truly hate this fucking person. People are literally not able to buy groceries or pay their rent/mortgages, but he wants to be able to dance the night away.


Rachel should be good tonight.
