At this point Trump should sell his share in the title or kill the pageant.

Hey!

It’s cheaper to send criminals to the US than build more prisons.

I’m sick to death of pandering to criminal illegals. Panama just announced which side they’re on.

Who will pull out next? One would hope it will be the Mexican rapists.

I guess you would've preferred for Trump to lie (or keep quiet - like the rest of enablers) so the Panamanians can come to the pageant.
