You’re not alone in this bizarrely suspicious turn-of-phrase, either, but why in dog’s name can’t you simply say the truth. He’s always supported fascism, and his lifelong works are bearing cancer all over the world.

Yes they're at each others throats but we'd have to be awfully lucky for the old vampire to die before 2030, and he has achieved his goal of controlling govts in the English speaking world (with the exception of NZ who wisely banned him).
