I keep hearing from the Talking-Heads in the media that Donald Trump had a bad week. How do they figure? Everything Trump has been saying came true last weekend. But the left wants us to believe that what our eyes are telling us didn't happen.
What I see is a president that just doesn't get it and a hostile press that wants to tell us that Trump is a lunatic as a form of deflection from the truth.
Political-correctness took a major hit this week, but you wouldn't know that by listening to the purveyors of liberal lies. The current administration has done everything in his power to weaken this country, to roll us back to a pre-911 footing, and make terrorism in America a frequent fact of life. Maybe he thinks that if it happens every day, we'll eventually grow numb to it. He claims Guns are the real problem, not a perverted cult that goes by the name of Islam. Just look at the major increase in terrorist attacks all over the world, thanks to ISIS (Obama's creation). Obama seems we want that here in America, because he's bringing them in by the boatloads.
