The Fascist Felon and His Brownshirts:

Lindsey Graham: "I really do appreciate President Trump. He has got a mess on his hand from Obamacare to a broken border to a war in Russia-Ukraine to radical Islam on the rise, and it all goes back to Obama and Biden. He is cleaning up their mess and be patient with this man."
