Six months is not a long time to have totally revived a major Country. “One year ago our Country was DEAD, with almost no hope of revival. Today the USA is the “hottest” and most respected Country anywhere in the World.” Happy Anniversary!!!

- Trump: The Washington “Whatever’s” should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team. There is a big clamoring for this.
