(11,885 posts)When they figure it all out they're being conned on a daily basis from a treasonous corrupt criminal , who'll never have their backs , and will feed them more excuses, distractions, and propaganda , instead of the truth, he's a crook robbing them blind. Putin has got him compromised too, and trump's protecting putin , and now the Russian Godfather of the mafia.
