Who: Gives a fuck.?
Who: Gives a fuck.?
Trump does. He wants to know if there any questions here that apply to him. And, there are:
Who is the only President to be impeached twice? Who is the only President that led an insurrection that resulted in the death of 5 people. And, maybe, before too long: who is the only President to be indicted criminally after he left office.
Note though....that has happened to a couple of VPs: Aaron Burr and Spiro Agnew.
