I remember back in the day, when I was a child, going outside and having my eyes start to burn from the air. I also remember looking that the horizon and seeing that the sky near the horizon was brown. We used to cal that the ring around the horizon.

That seems to be where Pres Trump wants to bring the United States.

The Oligarchs need MORE.

Gratitude.
