You’re not the only one. It’s a pattern. And Obama believes his own “genius” shtick so much that he’s like the kid with crumbs on his mouth thinking he can fool Mom that the dog climbed on top of the fridge and ate the cookies...
GOP attack trump and not the impostor who right after orlando is fast tracking is refugee program.
He’s raving and thrashing, because he hasn’t been able to bring the country down...yet. Watch out!
