He stood outside the Main Gate of my employer about 20 years ago demanding $100,000, they declined and he finally left. Why did he do it? Because it usually works. Entitlement

He made lots of money criticizing Reagan and like most politicians became an overnight media whore for the gullible masses.

Silly Trump supporters don't realize that the Big Beautiful Bill will accelerate the shrinkage of the middle class and a whole lot more. Perhaps Jackson was right to criticise Ronnie.

Oh, they realize it. MAGAs live in bubbles which is why you cannot argue with their sick minds.
