    Reality: This one is kind of sweet in a sad sort of way. Unsure why but Mr T was wrangled to be a Santa Claus at the White House. But somewhat awkwardly, no one would sit in his lap. Eventually, Nancy Reagan took the initiative and plonked down in his lap and gave him a kiss. Considering that a few years prior segregation etc was legal, well, that’s fairly impressive, especially for a conservative first lady.

    Mr T was later invited to her funeral, an invitation only event.

    Nancy was famous for her deepthroating technique in her acting years. How she became canonised as a Saint is weidly appropriate for Republicans.

    Nancy the Throat GOAT. Her and her husband did untold damages to the world. I hope they’re both experiencing an agonizing after-life, if one exists.

    Fuck Nancy. Our country would be in a better place if she’d never existed.

        It’s such an American thing to declare a war on that which lacks sentience only to, decades later, realize you can’t win a war against something that lacks sentience lol.

          Do… do you think that americans actually believe they are fighting a literal military conflict against plants and pills when they speak of the war on drugs?

          It just sounds catchy

      It was! That’s why I wrote in the explained that it was sweet in a sad sort of way. Sad that no one else felt comfortable, sweet that she marched right up, sat down AND gave him a kiss.

    Doubt the BBC in Nancy bothered him.

    He had enjoyed it himself for many years.
