24. Can you imagine if democrat president was in office

and we sent Homeland Security to Texas, held a press conference and knocked down, handcuffed a republican senator what Texas would do and what republicans would do?

They would go bat shit crazy and so should we! This should not happen ever!

Republicans are always rude, yelling crazy shit and we have never dragged them off like that. They might have been asked politely to leave or taken away by security but NEVER knocked down, handcuffed and dragged out!
