      He’s right. Zoom in a little bit. If you’re kind of zoomed in, it says America. When you zoom out, it switches to Mexico. I don’t know what they’re playing at.

          So stupid. Google et al are cowards.

          Democrats should take note of how easy it is to bully companies into submission.
