Desperate to restore dignity to the White House, Donald Trump pays porn star Stormy Daniels $130K for her silence to ensure victory

I have a vague memory of proclaiming a while back that I was done posting about the hypocrisy of Trump supporters, as it doesn’t seem to do any good. The evangelical members of the Trump base didn’t abandon him when they heard him talking about grabbing women ‘by their pussies’ without consent, so, really, what’s […]

Monkey Power Trio 18: Reno
