He probably got cancer from sitting on his ass for four years, six months of which, he wasted presidential immunity on family members instead of the American people or foiling Trump.

Benchwarmer president, outside of fumbling Afghanistan and letting the world slide further right by ignoring the working class, good job. Here's hoping hell has a seat waiting for him.

A bullet for both would be better for mankind than a single word from either.

Your post though has me rethinking my tolerance of the mouth breathers who defend their wardens, though. Get blocked, NPC. Go drink more of the Kool Aid.
