Trump and his followers are racists that sold us out to the Ruskies and Saudis he is an insult to me as a vetetan he does not represent me and any veteran who supports him should tear up their dd214. Crafty, cunning yet a Clueless Covfefe needs a miracle to win and miracles are hard to come by: Joe Biden holds a whopping 14% lead! Be blue. Shed red. Anyway. 4 more months to go before the fat lady would sing on November the 4th. Till then..
