Yee shall know them by their ‘proyection’

Carl Berstein can’t find a better word to to describe President Trump than ‘grifter’.. that’s because he himself is a grifter living of watergate fame for years.

Do you call that journalism?

The smoking gun has fizzled out years ago, but nice try. Too bad, like Godfather III, Tax Returns III is a flop.

'Donald Trump and his family are grifters,' he said.

Trump must be in this for the BIG SCORE, because he has donated 4 years of salary back to the Country.

If he is grifting, he must want to own the whole Country, all 26 Trillion of GDP a year.

OK, go Trump.

Carl Bernstein is even more deranged than Cher or Bette Midler and twice as stupid. His family need to do us all a favor and have him locked up I a nut house.
