Looks like the comments blasting trump have a memory capacity of a goldfish....and perhaps CNN is red baiting folks 😁

Another prime example of the Hypocrites who Voted for this admin. 10 years ago these same Bright eyed folks helped push us with GWBush’s admin help Two False Wars against terrorist who were almost ALL from where again.......that’s right Saudi Arabia. Both still going for Profit
