I’ve gotten a lot of practice today blocking people. 🙄
DANG! The impersonators are out in full force lately.

Reported and blocked several including Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, Elon Musk, Frank Figluzzi & Jim Acosta (CNN news reporter) impersonators.

Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?

TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

I can’t wait to find out where I can see this film.

In a world filled with bad news, remember today that good happens unseen every day everywhere.

For instance, each Thanksgiving morning, this group of local families comes to the green in Hartford near our house to serve breakfast to the needy. No publicity. No hype. Just good.
