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. They should protest him. https://twitter.com/mattvanswol/status/2037941251153019241?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Also in NC. https://twitter.com/mattvanswol/status/2037948820726628683?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ https://twitter.com/choeshow/status/2037886122190401693?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ …

The war against the world’s greatest sponsor of terrorism began last weekend, with the US and Israel taking out Iranian ships, nuclear sites, and its leadership, including its evil Supreme Leader.
