He’s at ~$1700 already. Anyone who can drop that kind of cash can afford it. Although I would expect someone like this to have better tastes than Taco Smell. No artisanal charcuterie platter?
And, to be clear, it is a valid question!
What!?!?
We got censored for asking this question. It was established as fact by the fact-checkers and Dr. Fauci himself that there was no lab leak, and anyone who said so was a conspiracy theorist.
