21. Ramstein Air Base in Germany is very important.

And I do not agree with a lot of places, bases, and military operations the U.S. has around
the world but Ramstein has a first class hospital and a place where our planes and troops
can touch down.

Trump and Hog’s Breath are clueless. Say an U.S. personnel gets hurt or takes sick,
or becomes a hostage someplace and they need help well Ramstein is the place where
“things can be taken care of.”

Btw how can Trump speak with Putin’s dick in his mouth?
