Stepping more than down

Nice headline . Why are you trying to divide Democrats? Disgraceful!

She should step down into a dumpster.

AntiTrumpReport I hate to see it happen but Graham was not deserving of any praise so this must be.

If only that was a clove cigarette in her hand

She’s too old

I can’t wait to watch the progressive destroy the Democratic Party over the next 4 years. Too bad the Republicans are so f’d up
