He had some verrrry interesting friends, including Mafiosi.
😔
Good
An 88 year old shouldn’t be managing a retail store let alone running our government. We are so doomed with this nonsense country
@lar ryder actually he announced in 2018 he would not seek another term. Clearly too much time in office, but that is another issue. He was not making decisions in office at 88 years of age as the original poster stated.
Again, I agree that he was in office far too long, but he was absolutely not in office when he died.
Yea Walmart greeter
Look at our president Biden. You think at that age I need the stress of this country.
@mario sanchez ….I thank God for Biden.
@FASear375 fullauto know that, he was there in romneys shell. both inept rinos

Good.
stealing money for 88 years
Waiting for more to follow…
Bummer for him.
We will fail everytime; it is in our nature 2 SIN. It is only through the
*****(BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST)***** that we can acquire complete Forgiveness. Accept Jesus as our Savior & ask 4 FORGIVENESS of your SINS, and accept that JESUS shed His BLOOD 2 atone for your Sins if u repent.
Then PRAISE the name of GOD. And then ask God for HELP with anything that you need help with.
It REALLY works.
FOURTY TWO YEARS!! Time for term limits, yesterday.
He never retired. WTF poor guy. I think no one retires from politics.
In other news the nail polish on my toe is chipped ☹️

Good Bles 👍
May God bless his soul.
God rest his soul.
$30 trillion in debt and bankrupt, you’re doing a bang up job WASHINGTON, LMFAO!
My condolences to our caring Senator’s family. You will be greatly missed.
God bless this wonderful man. Rest easy.
I wish I could feel some empathy or sympathy but I don’t.
I will feel sympathy for his family, but I agree with you regarding him.
