    Reminds me of when in 2018 when running for the Utah Senate seat, Massachusettsian Mitt Romney, trying to appeal to the masses, said his favorite meat is hot dog.

        At the time and even now, it was joked about that Romney isn’t really human. Because who TF says that.

          Romney also told everyone that he strapped his dog to the roof of the car while traveling on a family vacation.

      I was gonna ask what know and of question “what’s your favorite meat”…

      Then I realized it was likely someone in Utah asking.
