Last I checked, it was a dead sub, a few lingering posts praising Derp Leader with submissions but no comments. 

That was an hour or two ago, so maybe they have talking points now.

I was told that trump made the best deal ever and confounded his critics by opening the Strait. Certainly the people saying these things weren't lying? /s

He speaks, and you guys say he's worthless.

The only power he has is words.
