Do liberals realise that God, who is much more powerful than them, is on the side of Trump?

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Keep in mind that, there is always a system for any problem. You just need to be willing to think hard enough and BE WILLING TO MAKE SACRIFICES.
