Well, that’s not exactly true, is it?
He’s hiding behind a smokescreen of chaos and mayhem–in the form of both the civil war that he’s trying to provoke in Minnesota, and an international war over Greenland, Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran. All in an effort to avoid being impeached, convicted, and incarcerated for life.
