Thanks excessively rich capitalist kings from the Koch bros to Bill Gates you are ALL responsible for the creation of baby killing Traitor Trump.

They created this monster to gain more wealth. And they got their more wealth. But we still have their monster.

Am I delusional and my old brain is making up history?.......

If my memory is right, what on earth could have possibly gone wrong?........
