Five years ago today, when billionaire businessman Donald Trump announced his presidential campaign on June 16, 2015, the savants in the news media weren’t just skeptical — they were openly disdainful of the man who would go on to win the Republican nomination and the presidency.

“Can we stipulate for the purposes of this conversation that Donald Trump will never be President of the United States?” Mike Barnicle proclaimed on MSNBC’s Morning Joe less than 24 hours after Trump’s campaign kick-off.

Trump saved America from self destruction. We need him 4 more years. Maybe by then more people will realize what the democrats agenda is for the blue collar citizens of this country.
The unchosen one has definitely changed the game and has shown time/time again the other way was the outdated way. Many under the other way look very very old today.
Donkey's placing their bets on an 80 year old - really????
I say a prayer of thanks each day for the presence of Donald Trump and the absence of Hillary Clinton in the White House.
Thank you Lord for President Trump and give him guidance through these crazy times.
