WHATS UP MY FELLOW NIGERIAN AMERICANS!
The platform should not have been offered to this pathological liar and degenerate criminal. I did find that Kaitlin did an amazing job in calling Trump on his lies and dodges from answering. Also notable was her calm, controlled and professional demeanour.

Town Hall with Mr. Trump. Even if the moderator tried to challenge him, it’s terrible journalism to give this guy such a marshmallow soft and sweet platform.
