Trump: We didn't pay anything for the stock.
I'll always continue to be amazed at how stupid he, and the general public that supports him are.

Hmm I thought they shipped all there jobs overseas ? I worked for a temp agency for Intel.. came back from the military and the job was gone overseas… like Dam!
Hmm nationalization... That's so Republican...
