A big yes to the question and they are not very patriotic peole. Therefore the whole election should be a redo. With better candidates.
Yes. The puppet-masters, Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod are also showing incompetence in the vetting process - an where is THAT story?
He is late all the time. Consistently late for everything.
What executive can get away with that basic flaw?
I don’t think so. It is just a sign that Democrats do not believe that the law applies to them abd that Democrats are crooks.
It is also a sign that anyone who votes for a Democrat is a fool.
