It’s gotta be kind of fucking mind blowing to live through Jim Crow and the Civil Rights era and the rise of the KKK and all that awfulness and, in your lifetime, to see a black family in the White house.
Mmmm, think I just felt Strom Thurmond stir in his grave a little bit. That’s goooood schadenfreude.
Perhaps she thought that he was her present…

Everyone must be so excited to have those videos of everyone else’s cell phones.
