YOU JUST HAVE TO TRUST TRUMP. HE'S A VERY SMART MAN (SOME SAY THE SMARTEST). HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING!

Ahh, those were the days. Jarvis Cocker running on stage with Michael Jackson surrounded by children, having a 'second coming'.

I was last there in 2007. We went to a shabu-shabu restaurant, with very traditional decor. The food was amazing and all you could eat for £15.

So, the people who complain about big government and harp on about freedom also want to impose a strict financial penalty on you if you exercise that freedom by choosing to buy products from overseas. Got it.
