They've always had an absolutely duty to join with us to keep him checked. Instead, they've empowered and supported him, smashing laws as needed to do it.
Remembering that they know their wealth-serving hard-core white power party can't win free elections. Democracy doesn't work for what they've committed to.

(48,787 posts)Maybe he pushed the Egyptians to arrest the guy and the Irish got there first.
He wanted to get the Egyptians to do what he didn't dare do here but desperately wished for against the the object of his hatred, the press especially the New York Times.
Never has so much hatred been contained by one American.

Truthout.org: RE: Trump "In 2001, he sold the entire 45th floor of Trump Tower to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for $4.5 million. The fact that Trump is the 45th president serves as further proof that the universe has a gruesome sense of humor."

Trump is reported to say during a call in radio show on 9-11-01, "now my building is the tallest in NY."
