"Party of Lincoln?" "Leader of the Free World?" Trump has destroyed all that.

Trump's racist antics, his refusal to stand up against racism, his refusal to be a President of all the people, the GOP's Southern Strategy, the spinelessness with which the GOP is content to let society go under as long as they themselves profit from it...

The GOP is no longer the Party of Lincoln.





But... Leader of the Free World? The US President, Donald Trump, is the Leader of the Free World!!! Right?

The list of Donald Trump's biggest fans includes:

- Putin, whose political opponents just so happen to die from poisonings, heart-attacks and bullets (some are lucky enough to end up in jail for embezzlement-charges)

- Kim Jong Un, dictator of North-Korea

- Robert Mugabe, dictator of Zimbabwe

- Rodrigo Duterte, President of Philippines, who is heading a nation-wide purge to lynch all drug-addicts

- Raghad Saddam Hussein, daughter of iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and purportedly a financial supporter of ISIS

- the KKK

If such people like you, you're not the "Leader of the Free World".
