“Trump is out of office, yet these clowns rather rehash fake news vs. covering the demented blithering idiot that craps in his pants. Jao Xiden was the biggest scam foisted on the American public, yet the hosts fiddles a tune about a President who put America first while the nation burns to the...”Read full review »
