Do not engage. UniversalMonk posts on average once every 17 minutes, 24/7. Pretty sure he’s a Russian chatbot. Just downvote and move on.

Yeah, the things they say about Trump might have been plausible 8 years ago, but not to someone who lived through his presidency. I have to wonder if this is just reluctance to vote for a woman.

Trump is very good at diplomatic relations... yes so good that China followed his advice and provided free export during his presidency!
