Good evening everyone! Day 1038 of the #WorstPresidentEver and it wasn’t one of his better weeks; that’s for sure. We heard a bunch of testimony that pretty much sums it up: Trump abused his power, he obstructed justice, he’s a national security risk, and that’s just to name a few impeachable offenses. Plus, he’s the #WorstPresidentEver!
Again and as usual, I want to thank all of you for your Community Submissions and participation. The articles have done very well and we so appreciate them. You guys offer so many unique and different topics that are NOT Trump; that’s a good thing.
