    Stop the wars Stop the killing We are all connected with each other on another level.
  • Trump's foreign policy was the best since Reagan. For once we were at peace with the world. Trump is not a political fanatic. He's a businessman, a realtor in particular. For real estate to thrive you need peace and cooperation from all parties involved.
  • We have been in a “hole of stupidity” for the last three years in America. Enough of this bull💩… ptuey!
