Never saw it coming did you Senator?

#5 As much as I'd like to embrace a Democratic senator rebelling against the god-king, I'm afraid it's far more likely that the honorable senator's seeing an old nightmare on his side of the mirror that walks like a president. Something he used to look at through holes cut in a white sheet.
Even mirrorball nothingburgers have racist enemies.
