Give'm hell clifford! Melt some maga minds!
Yes, "Give 'em Hell, Harry!". The only major Democrat to show that it takes Force to command Respect - Showing Japan and the World that we didn't start the War, but we were definitely going to end it while saving thousands of US Soldiers Lives in doing so. Truman's downfall was not taking and doing the same in Korea - trying to end it on peaceful terms and not incite Russia and China - and yet her we are almost 73+ years later still trying to deal with Russia, China, and North Korea - the very same thing happened in Vietnam - President Johnson another Weak Azz Democrat, should have brought Vietnam, China, Russia, and Korea - to its knees - instead of losing over 58,000+ Proud American Soldiers - Sometimes Seeking Peace - DOES NOT WORK - COMMUNIST ONLY RESPECT - STRENGTH - AND ONLY SEE THE US AS WEAK - - - - - -
513. Wow! Chunks are flying with this one! And so spews "The PPPP " with more hate-filled galactically deplorable and outrageous fodder to choke on. Thanks PPPP!
6:12 always dodging facts
Major Tom excellent response. Thank you!
6:12 Major Tom this is ground control, please remove head from @&$ prior to lift off.
Thats a good one 353! Well done! Sadly, 353 will be observing how MILLIONS of "No Kings" protesters took over today. Impeachment of 353's orange fuhrer is on the horizon......unless of course the fuhrer blows us all up with his childlike decision making and impulsive narcissism when he realizes he's lost the country.
