        I feel like whenever I hear about the man, I see a story that contradicts the personality I assume from the previous ones…

    The 28-year-old Butker then took aim at President Joe Biden’s policies, including his response to COVID-19, which has killed nearly 1.2 million people in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
