what is that ass-licker referring to?

S.C. has and continues to have an absolute embarrassment of elected officials (federal, state and local). How does this help South Carolinians get their children educated?

... so that's our only choice? Like an attack on our gas stations was imminent. What a total crock of shit.
Every time I think that I can't possibly despise Republicans any more than I already do, a jerk-off like Norman opens its idiot mouth.

Anything to try to separate himself from the pack of other horrific GOP candidates (including Nancy Mace) who are running. Every last one of them is vying for lip space on Trump's shit-caked ass.
