Who was it who was responsible for the Belfast attacker being granted the right to stay in the UK on a 5 year visa? Answer: Suella Braverman as Tory Home Secretary & Robert Jenrick as Immigration minister. Who have now defected to Reform & are whipping up racism, hatred & othering immigrants.

He loves blaming Biden. But, sometimes he blames Obama. Trump will never get over the humiliation of so many people having respect for Obama - and he can't force it on an ever-expanding number of Americans. AND, there's that whole Nobel thing...
