Trump Watch June 12 2017

Day 144:

its all unraveling faster and faster:

Trump is not a smart man, or a competent one, my prediction is this it the hubris flavored end of the line for him.  He thought he could fake his way through the whole thing, and no one would notice all the scams and shady deals and stupid racist misogynist shit.  But everyone did, and everyone knows.  The only thing propping him up at this point is the power and money of the richest people in the world.

They know he is a good puppet, and will do right by them, but the power of the people is always greater than the power of the money, and they are fighting a losing battle to keep the veil over these crimes.  He will only come to justice if we continue to put pressure on those in power to do something meaningful.

You can’t just be against something, you have to be for something as well!

Livable Wage

Health Care For All

Pay equity for women

100% renewable energy

Paid Family leave/Daycare

Free Public College

Regulate the Banks

pay for it by taxing the rich and large corporations, while cutting military spending.

This is our list of demands, and it must happen or else the 1% will take off never to be caught or reigned in every again, and the rest of us will become slaves.
