For those STILL wondering why I continue to wholeheartedly support President Trump’s treatment of CNN:

– He's an environmental hero

– He was a socialist before it was cool

– He never let a political disagreement turn nasty

Many Americans have turned MLK into a safe holiday mascot, but some say King still speaks in ways that go beyond civil rights https://t.co/zMBtSBfPIm pic.twitter.com/Y8gl4Kx7lP
