Trump, Clinton, Bannon, Summers and the wealthy, powerful people on both sides of the aisle who keep us divided being part of the same pedophile friend group should be eye-opening to the people who still believe our struggle is Right vs Left, and not the Top vs the rest of us.

Trump is having his DOJ pay himself and his friends millions of dollars, and Republican Senators put a $500k payoff to themselves in the shutdown bill.
They’re stealing our tax dollars while telling you the mom on SNAP wanting to buy a box of cookies for her kids is the problem.

Conservative Problem Solvers Caucus Democrats exist to undermine the Dem Party in the name of “bipartisanship,” to advance a GOP agenda.

“Mr. Trump ‘knew about the [underage] girls’”
This needs to be printed out on posters, and carried around by reporters, so Republicans can’t say “I didn’t see it” when asked.

Trump truly is running the country like he ran his casinos — into bankruptcy.
And he's planning to treat American families like he treated his contractors — screwed over.
Trump knew his tariffs were illegal, and made sure there's no way to fix the situation.

Trump pardoned his associates who tried to help him overturn the 2020 election.
He pardoned 1500 people who tried to violently overthrow our government on January 6th.
Trump is proving that he’ll pardon anyone for any crimes they help him commit.
Complete lawlessness.

They’re not “donations.”
They’re bribes.
Donald Trump took millions in bribes for political favors.
Everyone understands this, and yet he’s still allowed to use the most powerful position on the planet to run his grift, and the best Republicans can do is say “I didn’t see it.”

Saying things that are “anti-Trump” is “probably illegal.”
The Trump administration already deemed anti-Trump speech as an indicator of domestic terrorism, because they aren’t only crushing your right to free speech, but trying to scare you into not speaking up at all.
