Someone plugged in a usb stick. Many, many, times apparently!

Anyone else remember when Trump walked into a room of hyper-wealthy donors and said something like, “I just saved all of you a LOT of money!” after his Tex cuts were signed into law? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

And isn’t in the top 10 for these guys.
