McCormick: I think the message is to lie our asses off and hope people believe us.
BARTIROMO: What are you expecting the president's economic message to be?

So Tom Cotton basically saw what he wanted to see in that second strike video. Or he’s lying.
Also, if two people are able to flip over a boat full of drugs, as he claimed they were trying, how small was that boat?

While Tr*mp's trade war and tariffs are fucking America's farmers, if the Democrats want to earn the votes of rural folk, maybe start by busting the monopolies that are making it near impossible for farmers to succeed. youtu.be/cl02K72QFS0?...
