Counting isn't his specialist subject. Case in point the thread "Trump in landslide".
Is that why he wanted to " STOP THE COUNT "

This character from Sesame Street might help Trump.

Hard to get as excited for this weak field. I think incentivise should win it quite easily, but don’t mind Persan as a roughie to at least place

Spanish Missionary position and Floating Artiste let me down, faaar.ken.

But the missus won big with “Verry Elleegant” (spelling and weirdo names - why do they do that?).
At least she had the good grace to pay for my meal, Cascade Light and our friends’ drinks.

C and S not close enough on keyboard for typo claim.

This is "English as a third language" level of language butchering.

C is close to S on most people's keyboards.

Another example of your defamation. I would make a derogatory comment about your nationality but I'm not racist and I dont know or care what you are.
