The U.S. State Department issued a notice yesterday for Americans to evacuate more than a dozen Middle Eastern countries "via commercial means due to serious safety risks."

The catch?

Air space is closed. There are no flights leaving 10 of the 13 countries.

β€œWhy didn’t we have this Hillary in 2016?”

You did have this Hillary β€” you just falsely believed she was nothing but an ice-cold bitch.

Now that you’re dealing with Donald Trump, you wish that bitch were here to rescue you.
