Could the Fake News Get Off Joe’s Back?
As stupid as what I’m about to say may sound, I have to say it anyway. And what I have to say is that I really can’t blame the GOP for making their assault on Woke the centerpiece of their 2024 campaign.
I mean, want the fu*k else are they going to talk about? The ‘ruinous’ inflation which even with high gasoline prices is 3.3%, which happens to be considerably less than the current 4.3% wage growth rate?
