Whisper to Barbie that Grandma’s legal status is not entirely clear and Barbie will have ICE take care of all Grandma’s problems. Share to Barbie that your big sister in college has expressed political views that don’t align with Dear Leader, and Barbie will ensure that you’ll never have to share a room with that mean sister ever again!
