Time. everything you laid out tonight in your monologue is accurate. all of it is in my book its almost as if i knew what was going to happen. can you imagine if donald trump offered a reset button to putin what they would do or for he was caught in an off mike moment with the russian prime minister? instead what he has done is hes given $90 billion, sanctions against the annexation of crimea and the left is focused totally on taking him down. they are the criminals, they are the ones who decide...
