He definitely wants to run for President in 32 against whatever dem takes President in 28.
Shut that shit down, Tennessee and/or Minnesota
I have family in Tennessee. They will absolutely not shut it down. They will pray for it to happen.
Hard to believe he'd have a shot in MN
He'd take a shot anywhere, as long as it comes with a testosterone chaser.
What do Pete Hegseth and Katie Zacharia have in common?
Neither of them can pass a bar
I've seen him lift. The testosterone isn't working.
Definitely not
Jesse "the body" Ventura and Michele Bachmann would like a word.
Minnesota generally does okay, but there's a lot of idiot farmers out there frothing at the mouth to turn it red and dumb.
Yeah, but Jesse Ventura has way more integrity than Hesgeth could even dream of having.
Minnesota is Tennessee with a major metroplex.
I mean it produced a hegseth
I don't believe the US will exist in its current form at the end of 2028. He's New Texas' problem
I believe the future name will be United America of America
United Trump of Trump. Or Trumpistan
America America of America
