It is called "Donald Trump" He is the biggest disaster this country has faced in quite a while. He is a total failure, making the USA less safe, and losing ground on the world stage daily. He makes me ashamed of this country, when people could vote for a fraudulent, Mafia wannabe, scam artist, congenital liar, mentally unstable supremely UGLY inside and out person. He is a national DISGRACE. The gop should be ashamed to support this fraud.
