Bravo, only way to resolve these conflicts of interest is to divest. Good call. We told your counsel wed sing your praises if you divested, we meant it. That was not hack. We made sure. It was also sadly what the k

The poll was conducted after the deadly charlottesville protest and President Trumps reaction to it. Jerry falwell jr. , one of President Trumps biggest supporters in the evangelical Community Says his reaction was appropriate. He said there were very fine people on both sides. Do you believe there were very fine people on both sides . He has inside information that i dont have. I dont know if there were historical purists there who were trying to preserve some statues, i dont know. But he had information i didnt have. One of the reasons i supported him is because he doesnt say whats politically correct. He says whats in his heart, what he believes. And sometimes that gets him in trouble.
