Funny how we have been reading that only 37 percent of Americans approve of Trump. Imagine how much money he could raise if he had Obama-level approval ratings. /s

Not bad for an “illegitimate” President, eh?

I’d suggest that the left cut their losses and give up looking like the lying fools they are, but since they’re fools, they’ll never wise up, so I won’t waste my time.

“I can’t wait to leave for DC this Tuesday!”

We are leaving for DC on Tuesday too. Staying at the Trump Hotel. Looking forward to attending the inauguration and some of the balls/parties.

This must be FAKE NEWS.....

For the last few weeks ‘they’ have been saying that the only people that fell for DT were the dumb, lower class, middle American working stiffs.

Must have held a lot of bake sales to raise that kind of money since the smart, monied people are Libs & back the clintoons.
