More theatrics and propaganda.

No surprise ~ A lot of insane people make similar claims from their lockup in mental institutions. The type that have bars on the windows

The biggest joke I've ever heard is that Pedo47 was going to be too busy working for the people to golf if he were elected.

He does nothing except fall asleep in meetings where his underlings constantly------- his flaccid member publicly.

I guess we need to print new History Textbooks again to reflect his great achievement? Trumps little orange book should be required reading just like Mao's red book.
