President Trump got in the face of ABC’s Rachel Scott after she asked him a question about the rationale behind his national midterm voter bribe.

No not demigods. Zealots maybe, though I will grant you that depends on the agent.
i mean, people have a lot of different images of them. I view them in black suits with big mustaches, dark sunglasses, tasers and bear spray on the hip and big badges that say TREASURY on them. Florsheim shoes. Squeak a little on the right foot. I bet Michael Gross would do a great job hold on i gotta write this part into my vampire screenplay. I might be getting them confused with IRS agents tho.
