t, now I have to admit that I did not therefore go all the way to Hillary Clinton paid for it. My brain did not go there on day one. I could just tell that it was fake news by the nature of it. You just listened to it, you go, I don't think so. And by the way, I'm pretty sure I would have spotted this had the parties been reversed, meaning that if the Republicans had accused Biden of the same thin…

Yes, you're wrong, somebody says in all caps. Okay. Yeah, I guess the poor people don't vote so there's no point giving them relief checks.

Well, here's a little thing that makes me scratch my head. Have you seen the pictures? I don't know if these are real, so you tell me if this is even fake news. It might be fake news. But there are long lines for Tesla charging in the public charging stations, and apparently it takes you half an hour to an hour to get a charge. And there's long lines suggesting that the people at the end of the line would have to wait six hours just to charge their car. Is that real? Because this has g

ot no content. The trolls are active today. Imagine being a troll like that was the best thing you had today, was to yell at me in capital letters. Like, well the best thing I got going today in my life is I got on a live stream and made everybody a little less happy with my comments. That's what I did. But do you think that it's true that the Teslas are lined up for hours to get charged? Here's…
