We are 100% supporting pres Trump. Germany's industrial owners have been selling out to Russia , at the expense of USA taxpayers CITIZENS, & the NATO FORCES, many German people are NOT happy about it, & praise President Trump for Pointing it OUT TO THE WORLD. USA CITIZENS HAVE PRIDE & OPPORTUNITY AGAIN, all the fake news CNN hyped dems, aren't going to block the FACTS. CHINA had spy caught stealing IP FROM APPLE AI WORTH $1TRILLLION ,the Chinese government agent caught try to leave airport under family pregnancy excuse, but had blueprint, downloaded, & all the AI for autonomous cars from Apple's RD. THIS IS WHY PRES TRUMP HAS TO STAY STRONG & FIGHT FOR IP THEFT BY CHINA. We are 100% supporting pres Trump, and are willing to pay more $$ for any items, in fact why DOESNT USA MAKE A LOT OF THESE THINGS IN THE USA AGAIN?? MORE jobs, more training, more tradesmen is the reason why, but THANK YOU CHARLES & FBN, & President Trump for starting TRADES APPRENTICESSHIP PROGRAMS, & HOMEDEPOT for starting trades APPRENTICESSHIP PROGRAMS for trades workers , craftsmen who made USA SELF SUFFICIENT , technology, & skills & developments that made USA ADVANCES THROUGHOUT HISTORY.
