Remember when these two guys took a walk in DC?

They seemed to get a lot better reception amongst the locals. I'm just saying.

"As Trump was sitting down to dine, he was approached by protesters chanting “Free DC” and “Free Palestine.”

In video obtained by CNN, a handful of protesters begin chanting, “Free DC, free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time” as the president makes his way through the dining room. The protesters are booed by others dining in the restaurant, and the president ultimately came within a few feet of the protesters before the video ends."

I watched to the end and got really teary eyed and choked up. What a good, decent man we had in charge of our country. Actually, two good, decent men.

Why oh why did we end up like this? I will never understand it, but I will also believe that the orange hellbeast never won either election.
