Good on the nuns!

Bears find human women far less threatening than human men do, as evinced by the mass killings of human women by human men and the very, very rare incidence of bears killing women.

We always agree on the most important things, Gen.

I agree that Romney doesn’t want to work with Trump. I honestly think Romney has too much integrity, now that he’s seen all that Trump really is and how he’s changed the party. Romney and his family have faced serious security threats from MAGAts, but luckily he’s as rich as Croesus so he can afford...
