It seems President Donald Trump thinks at least two Americans are busy making America great again.
On Saturday night, the President of the United States praised the vlogging duo on Twitter.
Link to tweet
In addition to frequently appearing on Fox News Watters World to chime in with their pro-Trump, anti-Maxine Waters point of view, the pair has appeared at Trump events.
They also testified in front of Congress where they insisted Facebook censored our tweets.
It is not exactly clear why Trump was so pleased with them Saturday night, however, shortly after Trumps tweet the pair appeared on Watters World where they talked up Trumpian talking points and bashed favorite trump target, Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

When I think "President of the United States" I don't think Trump.

I think I'm still in denial.

when they look in the mirror. It has to be self-loathing, right? There is so much pain in our world.

Some people will sell their souls for notoriety - good or bad.

They have zero credibility with the majority if America and they aren't fooling anybody with they rover the top bullshit act. They are both bought and paid for.
