Trump’s own voters are turning on him.

Pls don’t repost this or Trump will expode his depends!!

How many Trump family members and friends shorted the market last week? Just asking questions.

Hey Night Owl 🦉 The parasite from hell imposed a tariff on Heard Island and McDonald Island. Raise your hand if you agree Trump is dumb AF because these islands are uninhabitable. 🖐🏾 Repost 🔄 #BlueCrew #Tariff
