Coward. Greedy coward.
Back when Donald was a failure in real estate, he was famous for not paying his contractors. He would come up with fictional fault in their work as an excuse not to pay them. Now, this unscrupulous cretin is short-changing the National Guard. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...

If youβve ever visited Californiaβs Monterey Bay and looked out over the immensity of the Pacific - well, I hear itβs lovely. But how many of its roughly 4 million visitors per year know that beyond the surf, theyβre also in the presence of the second Grand Canyon of the United States? 1/
No lava taken from Hawaiβi. Lots of dark stories about it. Many who have taken lava, send it back, usually via the US Post Office to General Delivery, or to the vender, usually as jewelry, artwork, or the visitor just takes some. Believe it or not. βοΈ
