Watching them wrestle with this situation is probably the funniest thing I've seen this week but pretty sure Trump worship/racism will win out 😁

History time.

Back in the day, some Left women went to the Right To Life ladies and proposed an alliance.

Nestle was going into Third World countries and giving out free supplies of baby formula. Except they'd only supply enough to make the mothers stop lactating; once mommy stopped producing milk she was forced to buy expensive formula.

The Right To Life women were appalled and wanted to attack Nestle.

Enter Ronald Reagan and the 11th Commandment. He told the women that Conservatives should stand united and not listen to the Left under any circumstances.

If a dozen people were pissing on Reagan's grave, every reason would be different.

Jimmy Carter installed solar heating panels on the white house in 1979 to provide hot water.

Reagan had them removed.

If a dozen people were pissing on Reagan's grave, every single person would have twenty reasons and none of the reasons would overlap.

The other grim thing about that Nestlé story is that often the mothers didn't have access to clean water to mix with the formula, and many babies consequently sickened and died.

We have to think of the share holders.
