In a competitive global economy, we need the best educated workforce in the world - doctors, nurses, dentists, plumbers, welders, electricians, etc.
Young people should not have to go deeply into debt to get the education they and our nation need.

Hard to believe some folks still feel loyal to a con artist who has wiped out family assets. These were the same people who were upset by the price of a dozen eggs, right?

“I hope Trump won’t deceive us," says a Ukranian about the deal for minerals.
I think I would count on the deception. I would never make a deal with Trump about anything whatsoever.
