While 17 million Americans lose their health care because of Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” and Republicans killing ACA tax credits, Trump and his family are getting filthy rich.
Trump imposes tariffs to extract bribes. In April, Trump threatened a 46% tariff on Vietnam. Vietnam responded by approving a $1.5 billion Trump golf resort. For that payoff, Trump lowered Vietnam’s tariff to 20%. Even under the lower tariff, you and I pay more for auto parts and steel while Trump lines his pockets.
Trump puts us in danger by accepting kickbacks from hostile foreign governments. He sold 70,000 AI microchips to the United Arab Emirates for a $2 billion kickback.
Trump has cut $186 billion from SNAP, starving children to give tax breaks to his rich friends while sending $40 billion to bail out the autocratic government of Argentina. So much for America First.
For a $2 billion purchase of the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial “stablecoin,” Trump pardoned billionaire Changpeng Zhao, guilty of financing Hamas and child abuse through his crypto exchange Binance.
Trump’s administration is a con created to transfer our taxpayer dollars to corrupt industrialists willing to share the graft with him.
The system is rigged for the wealthy.
We need to vote these elitist thieves and their Republican bootlickers out (I’m looking at you, Jeff Hurd) and replace them with brave Democrats willing to support working families and pass tough anti-corruption laws.
Let’s raise our voices together: “We won’t get fooled again.”
