More democrat lies!

RTE reports on the investigations into the Trump organization yet completely ignored the fact that the FBI were investigating Hunter Biden while his father was running for office. It's actually laughable how unbalanced and biased they are 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Eire353 👏👏👏

potus Biden stands on a podium and supports a country that has killed 60 children in the last 2 weeks. And RTÉ prefer to do some Trump bashing. An irrelevant ex president.
