Buy: WALNUTS!

This lady asks Walnuts a “question” about barry. She starts with something about money and then says he is going against the Constitution, then questions if he understands it… Talk about stage fright. MAKE SENSE ETHEL! Mccain follows this by making a face. I would describe it as uncomfortable. Which is exactly how I feel [...]
