The internet continues to analyze the election, but look at this – a shows close to 60% of Americans, including some Democrats, approve of how Trump is handling the transition.

And the more I read the post-election analysis, the more I’m convinced voters weren’t just voting for a change – they were voting for a hormone.

More Xվ Newsradio Opinions: Marjorie Taylor Greene’s ‘good idea’ is actually pretty disturbing

I actually wrote a song about it a few years back when I was in my country phase:

Guys picking fights in a Honky Tonk bar

Flashing loaded guns from a souped up car

Bully hits your kid, but you never see him cry — I think we all know why

It’s testosterone — simple little hormone, very good for muscle tone

Everybody hates all the trouble it creates

But its handy on a date

Man with a chainsaw revving up his toy

Father watching football rooting for his boy

Puts hair on your chest and a tiger in your pants — but it has no place in France

It’s testosterone — simple little hormone, gets you to the end zone

Once upon a time your body made it from scratch — but now we use a patch

The French have wine, and the Germans have beer,

Italians have spaghetti and a lot of gondoliers

But they ain’t the ones who are calling all the shots — and I bet you know why not

Because while they were all watching soccer, we were taking over the world’s supply of …

Testosterone — we are a steroid nation, its in our legislation

We put it in our sons, and its even in our daughters

In fact, I think we even put it in the water!”

Just kidding, of course, but if it is in the water, I’m pretty sure RFK, Jr. will take care of that.
