Listen.

I don't like nor do I trust Kraut.

I don't like nor do I trust Kraut.

I don't like nor do I trust Kraut.

I don't like nor do I trust Kraut.

I don't like nor do I trust Kraut.

And I'm not going to suddenly start liking him. So don't worry about that. Okay? Feel better? It's not about Krauthammer. It's about ending sanctuary cities.
