Trump: U.S. back as leader of free world

With the attempt at blocking Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, which was simply an exchange of one conservative judge for another, it’s obvious that the anti-Trump hysteria will never end.

The Democrats won’t accept that their Queen Bee, Hillary Clinton, actually lost fair and square. They blame her loss on the Russian hacking, the FBI, misogyny, those “deplorable” people in flyover country and even bad press coverage. The last one is laughable. The liberal press and mainstream media were in the tank for Hillary.

After Trump was declared the winner, you never saw so many sad faces then those on ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and MSNBC. They were stunned. It didn’t take long for the Democratic Party, the media and former White House officials to push the false narrative that there was collusion between the Trump administration and the Russian government.

To date, there is no hard evidence of collusion. In spite of unprecedented nted obstruction, President Trump confirmed Judge Gorsuch and rolled back dozens of President Obama’s onerous regulations. In Obama’s first 100 days, Republicans helped pass his stimulus bill but never mind. More importantly, President Trump reestablished the United States as the leader of the free world.
