Zero surprise - Donnie’s a long time racist and Miller is a feral racist.
Trump's supporters say we call his policies "racist" too casually.
But let me tell the story of a new policy - about to be unveiled - that is racist on its face.
1/ A short thread on Trump's reported new "whites only" refugee policy. It's truly vile.

Donald Trump cannot be trusted to lead America into war. He is unaccountable to America. He is lawless. He only seeks conflict to cover up for his failures. Congress must step up and reassert its power. No more forever wars.

Yesterday, Donald Trump said that the U.S. has "too many non-working holidays."
Our so-called "pro-worker president" thinks that workers should have fewer days off.
Meanwhile, he's spending a huge chunk of his presidency (and taxpayer dollars) on the golf course.

If you vote for trump because you thought the economy was doing poorly…what’s your excuse now?
Remember the wonderful Biden economy. Last January, the expected US economic growth was 2.5-3%.
But now we have the Trump economy.
Yesterday, the US Fed cut its US growth forecast from 1.7% to 1.4%, but it is likely to fall further.
Trump & his supporters are to blame.
