History continues to be written, every single day.

We are currently (terribly) sold out to China. Terribly.

Worst in world history. The worst. Ever. Just last year.

Trump, fix that, please.

Trump talked about it on Oprah 30+ years ago. Amazing how long it takes. Too many people benefiting at America’s expense.
