The president said, “Unfortunately, no matter how well I do at the Summit, if I was given the great city of Moscow as retribution for all of the sins and evils committed by Russia” it still wouldn’t be enough, according to the media.
He continued his strong rhetoric about the establishment media, calling them the “enemy of the people.”
…over the years, I would return to criticism that it wasn’t good enough – that I should have gotten Saint Petersburg in addition! Much of our news media is indeed the enemy of the people and all the Dems…
