But of course, Taco trucks are parking across the street from Drumpf campaign headquarters (well in Denver anyway) -- (link) - zeitgeist Sep 3, 15:20 2
- Oo, he's polling at zero with African-Americans in Ohio. And wasn't Dawson asking about response from his people. - . Sep 3, 15:38 1
  - I thought dawson hated "mexican' food....I'm surprised that drumpf polls 20% of latino votes, he can't get more hostile - zeitgeist Sep 3, 17:38
Absolutely perfect day outside today icymi. -- nm - ML Galaxy Sep 3, 15:12 5
