The turd has to have someone to blame and get the heat off himself as he says he has no knowledge of the situation.

Just as Trump couldn't have become president AGAIN without a little over HALF THE COUNTRY voting for this dangerous, vengeful clown!

It's hard to imagine why would anyone want him out.

They're all at as low a level as any administration has ever been.

Of course, in the end, it's all drumpf's responsibility. He cannot hire, appoint, or marry anyone smarter than he and that leaves out most humans on Earth.

And we know he has ties to Russia. Would Republicans in Congress actually give him a pass???

I think he's horrified EVEN the spineless Republicans in congress who supported him and his clown car of choices after seeing what he's SMASHED in his first 92 days.
