The theft of our Social Security dara should be the subject of a MASSIVE CLASS ACTION SUIT.

Trump is like an untrained dog. He pees on EVERYTHING and then frantically declares, "This is mine! That's mine too!".

Is this building on the historic preservation list. If so they should be able to file a lawsuit to stop it. This is disgusting.

The derelict in chief cannot lead, create or imagine so he destroys the good others do. A great patriot to an audience of ONE.

So they are selling off OUR taxpayer funded buildings for nothing yet they are paying astronomical prices to buy warehouses around the country for concentration camps. Why can seemingly nothing be done about this? WHY, WHY, WHY?
