Trump vs. Veteran Vendors |
Hmm, no mention of "homeless Vets."
How dare him to not allow vendors outside the door of his business! How many on here complain when a neighbor violates The Villages home owner property rules? You moved here because you didn't want your neighborhood to turn into the ghetto. And you don't want solicitors at your doors. Give it a break. I am sure you can come up with something of substance on The Donald if you look way back during his high school years. Maybe he bullied someone and gave him a haircut, or something like that.
