there really is something amiss! Why is he still in power. I've always been led to believe, that there were powers within the US that prevented the unmentionable, and Trump is all of that and more! An embarrassment to the human race. I was going to say his own people. but that is one of his problems too, he thinks they are. A proven blatant liar, why is still there! You hit the proverbial nail right on the head, a masterstroke! Hugs and more hugs... Mick
