I normally don't post/repost anything about Megyn Kelly. She is - as one poster put it - a vapid c*nt who just wants her 15 minutes.
However, I'm glad that this young lady I am posting was given permission by her parents to post this 👇🏽💙 Spot on dear! 💙

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.
Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

There is a tree in Nashville that I'm pretty sure was pulled up into a tornado when it was a sapling, but it had strong roots and it survived. I visit it every time I'm at Centennial Park. When I first moved here, it was barely taller than me, and now it's an adult!
