"My health was starting to suffer. I've had attempts in the past ranging from a day to a couple of moths. "I feel much better. My body is still getting rid of the stuff that's been there 30 years, but my breathing is a lot better."

It should be but it’s not front page, and you know why..because Trump is a genius like he says 😂 he has shown republicans how to flood the airwaves with so much BS and because liberals will chase you don’t have time to focus on any one thing, because there is always something 🤔 In his last year in office, Trump was impeached twice, hid CDC data that led to over 500k deaths in USA, conspired to overturn election results and organized a violent attack of the US Capitol & American people DIED.
