A successful country cannot be unhoused, hungry, sick, tired, jobless, uneducated, and suffering from cold/heat. "A high tide raises all boats." PERIOD.

Low-income Americans who voted for Trump say they are counting on him to keep their benefits intact even while his Cabinet picks and Republican lawmakers call on him to reduce federal spending.

You know it, we know it, the Republicans DON'T know it or understand it and sure as hell Trump understands NOTHING.

Every single one of these people do not explain how SOMEONE has to pay for these grand plans.

Trump will never get this. He’s a woefully stupid businessman. He seems to think dragging everything through court is a great investment (4,000+ court cases since 1980, not as POTUS).

He should stick to writing fiction.

You failed to mention that he is terrible at making the case and that he is wrong. It's okay though because he is making a strong case to keep electing Republicans.

Well he is retarded and lives in fantasy land.

The cries of socialism and how it scares people are not attached to reality. The rise of the middle class in America coincided with the emergence of social programs that were accepted by the population. Here is a breakdown from Matthew Cooke. #DemsUnited

A government that lets people sleep on the street while billionaires hoard wealth is a government making a choice. We can choose differently. Invest in people. Invest in affordable housing. Treat having a roof over your head like the human right it is. I am not going to stop fighting until working people have a government that actually works for them. 💜

Sky News, "Why are we so unproductive in this country?" Paul Nowak, "In part it's the toxic legacy of 14 years of the Conservative government that underinvested in our economy, didn't have a coherent industrial strategy. Which also resulted in a fall in living standards and wages" "There are some deep rooted problems along that. UK employers invest half the EU average in skills. Then we wonder why we can't get the skilled people that we need" "We also have an economy that is very good at creating low paid insecure jobs. Over a million people on zero hour contracts" "It's time for the government to invest"

Wow, in less than 100 days, look where we are. Keep on posing back, Matt Ransdell. You're doing great. I do not understand why anyone would think the country is in a better place today than it was three months ago. #DemsUnited #DemVoice1
