This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Indeed, it's far worse than that... Trump is running up a tab of many millions in taxpayer funds for purposes of promoting his own golf course. And the proper word for that is *corrupt.*
