Will Donald Trump’s Hair Style Challenge That Of Willard Mitt?

by Smitty Oh, bring it, Donald; I, for one, contend there is insufficient buffoonery in American politics today. If any can mitigate the excess of ‘sobriety’, it’s you: I will be making a major announcement tomorrow (Thursday, February 2) at 12:30 pm at Trump International Hotel & Tower, Las Vegas, Nevada Actually, given that I’m […]
