The ones who shout “patriot” the loudest are usually the dumbest MF’s that knows squat about their own country.

How many times do we have to read that “Democrats owned the slaves” from fu**wads with minimal education? Seriously, I guess we can understand their ignorance about

The plot for Donald Trump and Putin to meet in Hungary to try to extort Zelenskyy has fallen through. The Russian government wasn’t able to secure safe passage for the Kremlin Gremlin through any European country. The meeting was officially cancelled, leaving Trump and Orban with egg on their face.
