I read today, that,' Reversing the hostile rhetoric of his election campaign, Mr Trump described Saudi Arabia, which he accused last year of responsibility for the events of 9/11, as a “magnificent kingdom” and said that Islam was “one of the world’s great faiths”.' And over the weekend I read from a friend that Trump had tweeted in the past about how dreadful it was that Michelle Obama didn't wear a scarf when they visited a muslim country.. yet Melania didn't wear a scarf on their current visit.. and then there were the many times Trump openly criticised Obama for the number of holidays he took and the number of golfing sessions he enjoyed, yet we see Trump playing golf practically every weekend...

The organ of the other, the Communist Party of Great Britain, was Marxism Today. less

He said he had a plan to take out ISIS. With neither of those claims to make would his only schtick be DRAIN THE SWAMP AND LOCK HER UP?
One person has an IQ of 150 while another may have one that is 90. Is it always a function of the health/perfection of the DNA? Are there any other factors that drive such differences?
