The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
