When Trump draws a line, he means it

For eight years President Obama hid in the darkness of Chicago politics. He proceeded to divide our country like no one before him: rich against poor, black against white, legal against illegal immigrants, and men against women – all the time preaching diversity!

He traveled the world apologizing to our enemies and failing Third World nations about our sins. Maybe Obama’s mantra should have been “Can’t we all just get along?” How’s this all working out for you now?

Finally, we have a true leader that can draw a “red line in the sand” and not turn tail and run.
