It’s only treason if you get caught. If you win, it’s called patriotism🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Is for that reason that the commanding general of the Expeditionary Force to France, when he first arrived said, "Lafayette I have returned".

Take a step back to get a wider view: the subversion of democracy has been happening for decades. Trump is just clumsy enough to make it obvious.

Donald Trump cares about this country more than you. The Democrats have no plan they’ve been taxing and spending and making government bigger. We were failing as a country before Trump.

Hard to believe that someone's rich would care enough about the its people and not making deals with war criminals known as Russia.

Damn right. The founding fathers were traitors to their Crown, their King their mother country. Franklin nailed it when the said, more or less "We all hang together or we all hang seperately". They were so lucky that hanging, drawing and quartering had gone out of style. If transoprted to this century they could be, correctly, described as insurgents and even terrorists. I do love Franklin, a personal hero of mine. I admire the founding brothers, even the hypocritical and thoughtlessly evil slavers. I think on the whole that the American Revolution and the French one that followed in it's footsteps, did more long term good than evil and that the bloody butcher's bill of those wars was somehow "acceptable". Those raped, tortured, murdered, civilians bayoneted or shot and let to die slowly, as well as those who died on the many battlefields, or had their arms, legs, or genitalia, torn off by shot and shell may disagree.

A great movie to watch is "1776." It shows just how divided the second Continental Congress was leading up to their vote in favor on independence on July 2nd.

Ryan, Yes, I am spamming this because I am pissed!

US contractors for FEMA identified me as "Russian disinformation" after I whistleblew on insurance fraud, conspiracy to commit mass murder, and rampant drug and alcohol abuse on the job in fire recovery

-So you're saying I should be killed for it?

Fuck you

A very famous Democrat once said ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country. We finally have a strong president who only cares about America.🇺🇸

What do you mean by 'Murrica'? This is a word I have never seen before. I looked it up and it has a couple of meanings.
