Keeping Their Feet to the Fire — and Our Retirement Accounts in Flames: Where Are We Headed?

I have no problem with President Trump’s holding the European Union’s feet to the proverbial fire. They’re a bunch of socialist assholes who’ve robbed from the United States, economically, militarily and intellectually, for decades.
