The h**e has always come from right wingers..

What is your point about building golf (gold) courses??

It is the hope of anyone who build a golf course that people will play on it..

I do not build h**e. I have built a few things I feel good about. but who cares but me and mine?

the orange thing has kept his favor with his base by pushing the h**e button. H**e non-w****s, H**e immigrants.

H**e paying your taxes, h**e the school system, H**e the legitimate media.

H**e anyone and anything which criticizes trump.

While he keeps you close with urges to h**e, he empties your pockets of the few remaining bits of wealth and power the middle class has..

I do not know the end result or the current govt relationships..

I agree with that! It's the same in Crimea. We "meddle" too, too much to get all butt hurt that someone "meddled" in our e******n. If "meddling" is an act of war, then the USA certainly fired the first shot!!
