Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog does another current events roundup from an America where ignorant, uninformed and emotionally unstable anti-Trump loons have conveniently forgotten the eight years of Barack Obama’s periodic strikes on the middle east.
*** NEW! TRUMP ANNOUNCES CEASEFIRE BETWEEN ISRAEL AND IRAN.
PRESIDENT TRUMP PRAISED FOR HIS DECISION ON THE STRIKES AGAINST CRAZED IRANIAN REGIME’S NUCLEAR SITES. Trump critic praises the president and acknowledges the strikes saved American lives HERE. Even this unhinged anti-Trumper admits this was the right call HERE.
