I normally never click on any of the Melt Down end of trump videos but this one intrigued me, especially being posted by you, someone I have grown to respect a lot.
This, somewhat lengthy one, was worth every delicious second of it. Never seen one that hit on every single subject that would have sank any Dem politician.
Thank you for this encouraging, hopeful few minutes that this muther can not, will not, keep getting away with it nightmare.
And every damn one of his cheerleaders like Ice Barbie, Moses Mike, Graham, Pam Blondie, Tulsi, Honon, Rubio, Just to name a few should face the harshest of justice we can have come down on them.
And every one of them never find a moment of peace, a second of air time, and never hold any position in any government ever again.

Add Cruz and DeSatan to that list. And Podium Barbie as well. And then deport them, stripped of citizenship, to a country that hates white people.
