@cnnbrk Just like the guy that sat behind Pelosi‘s desk, they all went home and shaved in an attempt to change their appearances. It still blows my mind that Trump said he’d meet them there and then Trump went back to the White House to watch. They keep getting played.

@CBSNews I appreciate his normalization of gay marriage and how approachably corny he makes his marriage. It really does a lot. Plus, it makes the MAGA crowd squirm with figuring out how they can criticize what’s obviously a ‘normal’ value centered marriage, without hypocrisy.
