Wait, are you talking about clothing hump, or Donald Trump here. …hold on. Those names sound really similar… we might be looking at another John Barron here. Pull his mask off!

Thanks **running coach.** Agreed. I thought I could still use reason and evidence, but they are lost on Trump and his followers. They all find a way to justify absolutely anything he does., even the evangelicals. Or shall I say, especially the evangelicals. ---

Yes, the Obama administration was so anti-business they only wanted to give out [$700 billion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troubled_Asset_Relief_Program) to bail out failing American businesses, and [not even $800 billion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Recovery_and_Reinvestment_Act_of_2009) to stimulate the economy. And American businesses really declined from 2009 to 2016, didn’t it? ---

That’s irrelevant because Obama’s black and a Democrat. **Clothy** isn’t one to notice truth if it’s subtle like that. ---
