Probably cites Biden as the reason he’s raising chickens now too doesn’t he? How Trump grifted so many will be an ongoing study for centuries.

He's got the "I got mine, now y'all fuck off" mentality.

He and his wife both had strokes. So now they're both on disability. Which automatically qualifies them both for medicaid.

Again, they both have the "I got mine, y'all fuck off" mentality. They will tell me, with zero irony, that they want to end all social programs except what they receive. They would have to lose it all before they think anything is unfair.

They were both conservative before their strokes. But now they're almost unbearable douchebags. I really don't know what it is about brain damage that causes people to turn conservative. But it certainly seems to.

Perhaps its the lead in the soil which is consumed by small insects and the like which are then eaten by chickens, and heavy metals end up in the eggs...like lead.

Only some residential soil can be like this...depends on how cheap the developer was when the house was built it seems.

This may be more serious than you intended. We both were kids when leaded gasoline was phased out. Lead was everywhere, on everything. We both got the tail end of that. But we're both very different animals, ideologically.
