Trump Fomenting Violence.  Utah idiot tried to act on it–and was killed.  If this TV ad isn’t a call for violence, I don’t know what is.  BTW, the charge that Willis had an affair with a gang member?  Completely made-up.  He will not stop ignoring court orders to limit what he says publicly.  Lock him […]
