NOW THIS I LOVE!
Hope Americans are listening
Trump tells the Truth. Praise God.
Awesome!
Got to hand it to Him,
He Really nails it.
Amen and watch liberal heads explode all over again.
Yes, and did so more directly than any president in history, including Washington and Reagan.
Attended the event this afternoon in Dallas. It was amazing and appeared to be a full capacity crowd at the American Airlines Arena. They played and we all sang “how great thou art” before Trump came out.
Thousands and Thousands of decent, kind, respectful, and yes...attractive Texas conservatives. No fights, no trash, no arguments, smiles everywhere.
I’m beginning to believe many liberals are nasty because they look nasty. Great night!
such an incredible gift.
Yes.
Praise The Lord Jesus Christ
Well said Trump.
Wonderful!
