    PUMAs are chickensh# Republicans that won't admit to being Republicans

    What else can logically explain their irrational hatred of the Democratic nominee and unquestioning support of the Republican nominee? It is really as simple as that.

    The other fact that proves that PUMA is nothing more than a farce dreamed up by a cabal of naughty, underemployed Republicans is the fact that their leader Will Bower promised that a minimum of $6 million was being raised in July to help Hillary pay off her debts. Well that promised $6 million ended up being more like $80,000. So much for PUMAs being Democrats.
