Trumps bad week

Trump has been having a bad week for about a year now. Mostly because he is an evil incompetent nincompoop who shouldn’t have ever been let anywhere near the white house.

Most likely there is a republican or corporate democrat you could be voting out of office some place near you, go to your local board of elections website and find out!

See how your elected representatives are voting for or against Trump.
