#10 They've a bit lazy lately... They'll probably just say Trump's name like the magic talisman they believe it to be, several dozen times, at complete random in the article. Grammar and reading comprehension are racist you know.

#11 So to be clear, either she married her brother for real to get him ad mission to the US and committed bigamy, not to mention mususe of campaign funds, or the marriage certificate is phony and she committed tax fraud? And she isn't in handcuffs because.......oh wait, she's a Magic democrat, muslim POC and they have special exemptions from the rule of law?
