Trump joins Corrupt former French President Sarkozy in Having Authorities Raid his Home; Will he Also be Convicted?
Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – Reacting to the serving of a warrant and search by the Federal Bureau of Investigation at his Florida resort on Monday, Donald John Trump alleged that former presidents are only treated this way in banana republics or words to that effect.
