What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, January 20th, 2025. A very tragic day for America, because Trump will be President (temporarily, he will be discharged because he’s a Pedo, and you can’t be president if you molest little girls, see #TrumpPedoFiles and convicted felon with 34 counts. Also #TrumpRussia and #StolenNuclearSecrets. Please don’t give Trump access to the Red Button, too dangerous. He might want to use it. Anyway, while that goes on for Monday, we’ll be busy watching the National College Football Championship between The Ohio State University and Notre Dame. GO BUCKS!
