Well, we know who's winning for president for sure

Clearly deciding to run a candidacy on ViolenceRevengeAndRetribution is extremely problematic.
If T and maga don't like what happened- they should make better choices for their platform.

We (Bangladeshi) students are currently peacefully protesting against quota, but Student League an organization of the government ambushed us.Nearly two hundred people were injured and many were killed in the attack. At this time we need you very much because the journalists of our country are on the side of the government.They have no news on this issue.They have not promoting about on this issue.Seeking freedom has now become a crime for us.
