Golly, ya think?

Trying to undo Obama’s legacy, going after Colin Kaepernick for peacefully protesting, attacking LeBron James for doing great community work. Hmmm, it’s almost as if Trump, I don’t know, doesn’t like successful black people.. — TrentaCapelli (@OkCallMeAL) August 4, 2018 Mr. Capelli forgot (or space precluded him mentioning) Trump’s incessant repetition that Congresswoman Maxine Waters …

Damn fool opens mouth again

Why does this clown say things that are so easily debunked? Since taking office I have been very strict on Commercial Aviation.
