This tweet about Contestant & Judge at a dog show is my best tweet today

Rex Chapman🏇🏼 (@RexChapman) Tweeted:
This beautiful little girl has autism. She brought her stuffed-puppy to the dog show.

One of the judges stopped, walked over to her, and asked if she wanted to show her dog as well.

This is what happened.

But I totally understand. And, yes - from what I understand the psychopathic dump doesn't like dogs, cats, horses, women, intelligent people, scientists, and anyone who doesn't adore his orange-tinctured face/ass.
