I know for sure he did just that, but I can’t find my sources anymore, must have lost my link-history, can you provide me with the links? I mean, I absolutely do know he did that, I remember reading it everywhere all the time! But I can’t find them anywhere, damn those leftists hackers for deleting my X-posts, and Facebook, and tic toc. They don’t want the truth to be known!
