The CCP-backed, Soros paid, elderly-attended anti-Trump crowds are at it again, around the world. Really! People who have zero connection to the US President are out in the streets protesting him. You can’t make this stuff up. Starting in London: https://twitter.com/americapapabear/status/2037910709166895274?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Their King supports Islam.
