    Man this is the kind of political scandal I need. Not one where a rapist conman pedophile bankrupt businessman is just straight up robbing the Treasury.

      I’m upset that I cannot find that tweet about someone not wanting new, psychotic Joker, but rather old, campy Joker who runs for Mayor of Gotham just so he can pass stupid laws and make people follow them.
