So what would you like for 2016?
You don't want Hillary.
Right.
No, I'm aware of it despite the fact that I'm white and have genitalia that resembles a male.
And I went to North Hollywood High School.
I also know that hard work will get you where you want to be.
And it drives me insane when people get up there and go โ

This is the worst.
And it's one thing if you manage a bar and that's your fucking rap.
But when you're the leader of the free world or when you're speaking in front of huge groups of people and you're telling them โ
It's 2012 or 2013 and the playing field is not level and you're not going to be able to โ what are you doing?
It's like a football coach saying you're undersized, you're slow, and you're never going to win.

I completely agree.
I mean every time these guys take the podium and they explain that โ

You're screwing everyone up.
For Christ's sake, just tell everyone.
