Trump's Understanding of the Real World
Reader comment on item: Trump's Saudi Speech: Pretty Good
Submitted by DENNIS ALLEN DURKOP (United States), May 21, 2017 at 21:19
I truly wonder how much President Trump understands about the subjects of geography, history and geopolitical of Islam, especially about the OIC? Should not say anything to negative as do not believe the past Presidents were aware of the threat of the OIC either!
