    Hi Don That Atlantic article has been proven to be nothing more than political BS I think that "feud" started when McCain criticized Trump running for the republican party nomination. IOW, McCain started it ;D

    I wouldn't trust the UN, especially the HR department. Great bunch of countries to criticize the US. Oh yeah, didn't the UNHR critcize Canada in the past? so many member states are dictatorships that engage in human rights violations -- and they support each other. The worst countries are far...
