Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

“They knew it would cause pain and they did it anyway,” Johnson said.

But he should have said that about Trump's DOJ burying the Epstein Files, not Democrats trying to save health care for millions. 😡

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.
