My 94 years young Mom asks me every day when I visit:

“Son, how many more months is this clown in the White House?”

My question is why didn’t they wait to begin with?

I mean these are all leaders of nations right? Wouldn’t one hold the meeting start until everyone was present?

He , Hillary, and their pals intentionally give away billions of our tax dollars, weapons of mass destruction, military training, national security knowledge, etc. to the followers of Mad Mo.

Ben Franklin was correct.

He needs serious prepping.
