Just a Hunka Hunka Nazi Love! The Canadian Nazi debacle continues!Nikki Haley took an absolutely crushing self-inflicted loss in Nevada.

So, in North Korea they have a "youth coal mine", where kids can prove their loyalty to the Tubby Tyrant by digging coal, all to advance the majesty of the Glorious North Korean People, as one naturally longs to do.
