Trumps making history, I’ve never seen so many people so afraid of one man in all my life

@dvsreed 13 дней назад

You've confused afraid with embarrassing......Trump was an embarrassment to our country. Other world leaders openly laughed at him and made joke about him. Putin called him a buffoon and "useful" on Russian tv. He was the worst president and has become the worst ex president. Prison is too good for him
