First it was "so-called judges". Now we're at "so-called intelligence agents".




The real scandal here is that classified information is illegally given out by "intelligence" like candy. Very un-American!



See those quotation-marks around "intelligence"? They mean that a word is not to be taken literally. That means, Trump is attacking the legitimacy of US-intelligence agents and agencies.

I have not yet and never will refer to him by his usurped title. The closest I'll get is to call him Resident Chump.

the presidency of the US. Plus, he's as depressing as hell, only talks in endless negatives about the US. It's still like a terror-dream that this guy is president. He's been a disaster since day one, and years before that. Plus, where are his tax returns. This guy is a super-con and is trying to hoodwink this entire country as another one of his schemes.
