You just need to be a casual observer of US politics to know that the elections are not too far off and that the republican candidates are lining up to get the party’s nod. Billionaire businessman Donald Trump has hit the headlines often for all the wrong reasons, but what is surprising is that he is leading in the republican race.
Well, one student has spelled out what’s wrong with Donald Trump in 15 tweets. Lauren, a college student in Upstate NY, is a blogger and a proud feminist has called out the billionaire on factual statements he has made or about his past.
There are people who are actually going to vote for Trump because they think its funny. This is no joke.
