It seems that every billionaire in the United States, including our billionaire in chief Trump plays a good tune, but with an out of tune instrument, in his case his mouth. Every goddamn one of them either fights like hell to eliminate the Bill of Rights, or talks a weak act when confronted to talk about it while in public.
