Why never Hillary, once again. El porqué nunca Hillary, de nuevo
One of the most frustrating things about these elections, is the absolute denial by people (who are pro Secretary Clinton) of what is going on in them. We have had massive rigging and manipulation, electioneering by a former President who … Continue reading
