Says an old white man wearing a bow tie………….

Still too many MAGa/Klan in positions of power doing great harm to out country …sad….

Colin Greene sounds like someone who is deeply and profoundly committed to keeping his own job.

Bowed to the mob.

Always blame white people for the faults of the bad race.
