There aint no chaos or panic in France by the French. The only chaos and panic is coming from the demographic that WILL be kicked out of the country they have no right being in if Le Penn gets control. As it should be.

But the chaos and panic in the US is not the populous but the Demographic party because they are staring in the face of defeat. Please wait and see just who they pick for the Presidential run. Oh, if you haven't figured it out yet it wont be Biden.
