He is very fond of fake news, isn't he?
We became a Fourth world nation when Trump took office. Backing out from
climate deal, contentious relations with the Europeans, blanket ban on
people coming to US, on and on and on.... I dont see anything optimistic
for the future.
I say Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up! ..... Maybe Putin can find
a soft place for him in a Russian gulag.
