"The Cost Of Keeping His Word"

A divided nation watches as Trump fulfills his promises one by one; power centralized, justice weaponized, and the American people left standing still in the crossfire.

-Today, Prince Andrew gave up his royal title because of his ties with the child-rapist, Jeffrey Epstein.

I have heard Confederate apologists claim slaves were at least taken care of.
I have heard Nazi apologists gush on about how Hitler saved the German economy.
