If you are one of a diminishing number of Americans who continue to support Trump, you either share his immorality, or you have accepted the biggest con game in the history of the world. If you believe that Trump has any intention of “making America great again,” you will believe anything.

His only goal as your illegitimate president is to make himself and other billionaires richer. Don’t believe me? Would you believe it from Donald Trump himself?

Immediately after Trump’s destructive tax bill was passed in a purely partisan fashion, he bragged about his success to his wealthy friends. Attending a dinner at “Club 21” in New York, he exclaimed to his rich dinner companions: “I’ve just made you all a lot richer.” One week ago today at Mar-a-Lago he told his dinner guests the same thing; “you’re going to be a lot richer.”

All 51 Republican senators are lying to you when they say that their sad bill is not a gift to themselves and other millionaires and billionaires. They won’t even discuss the fact that 13 million Americans will lose their healthcare thanks to cuts in Medicaid.

Trump’s intellect is below average, and he has not accomplished a single positive thing in his life without criminal behavior. His entire life is based on lies and misdirection, and he has now accomplished the biggest con in political history. His lies and false promises convinced millions of ignorant Americans that he would be a good president.

Laugh if you will, but the truth is not funny. Piece by piece he is destroying all of the good in America. Every action; every proposal from the right side of the aisle is designed to increase the personal wealth of Trump, 584 other billionaires and 10.7 million millionaires. The working class will experience a reduction in their quality of life. Many of Trump’s own supporters will slide below the poverty line. Trump is a classic example of “you paid for it, now you own it.”

Please re-post; thank you.
