“You are absurd. Consistently.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

MarMema,

Are you alright?

You just said that Trump’s policies noted here below are “ABSURD” !?

There is nothing “absurd” about me sending you verifiable facts about what Trump did during his 4 years as President.

Why do you say Trump’s policies are absurd? If you do, you shouldn’t be on a conservative website like FR.

When you oppose Trump’s policies as you just did, you prove to everyone here on FR that you are a far left troll - supporting the Russia-China-Iran alliance.

Don’t you feel a tiny bit of shame?
