Since the Communist News Network has always admired/supported Dictators, Tyrants, Socialist and Communists......but are still anti-Trump, I know they are lying.

Idiots, the whole lot of them. If Trump was on the path to Tyranny... why isn’t Mueller’s head on a stake? The fact that he has allowed that farce to continue speaks volumes to cnn’s fiction

Did these pukes just wake up from an 8 year nap? Did they not pay attention while Odumbo ruled by fiat? Did they not watch while the Judicial Branch legislated from the bench?

Just. Wow.

That post is either a winner, or the sure front-runner for the same.
