One of the most moving stories I have ever heard.
As usual, ABC reporting normalizing Trump administration's lies, illegal moves and taking Trump and his overtly corrupt officials' statements at face value, eating their lies, making assumptions that those bullshit statements reflect their motivations...then wasting a bunch of time reporting on such naive assumptions
Wow, no wonder he's Putin's puppet. He's such a low IQ person!
