America cannot afford to be weak 🇺🇸

[link removed] John, President Trump made a strong and decisive move in confronting the brutal regime in Iran. For decades, the Ayatollah and his regime have spread terrorism, funded extremism, and killed Americans. America cannot afford weakness in the face of that kind of evil. I meant…
