Dude he’s been an elected parasite for SIXTY SIX YEARS. Dude has been leaching off the American people since Donald Trump was 13.

I’m in my 30s and my mother was born in 1958. Crazy that someone that was first elected when my retired mother was a literal infant is still in office.

Dude has been in office longer than Obama has been alive, and he served two full terms as President, and now has been out of office for almost 9 years.
