Shows how uneducated R.'s are about the ROI of social programs together with the financial burden to the state of poverty, incarceration and poor health.

And Team Trump needed something else to "own the libs" ahead of #NoKings. It's always about trying to piss off the "rule of law" types.

INCREDIBLE !!

We know he didn't generate this himself because his mind is a lime jello shot. So: if his handlers did it, what are they thinking? It's so vile that I have to wonder if they are trying to get him on a glidepath out for insanity.

Interesting - do you have insight into what that could look like? Are court martial details ever made public? Genuinely curious, not trolling ...

We are, "Back to the Feudal": peasants paying high percentages of our "crops" to our feudal landlords, the Broligarchs.

It's so insane that it's as if his handlers want him to do down.

If memory serves, the use of private jet brought Ryan Zinke to heel in Trump 1.0

From @theguardian.com : "Millions took to the streets today across more than 2,700 cities and towns, marking a day of defiance against Trump’s authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics, and the militarization of American cities."
Amen.

How low does 47's approval have to go before the #GOP understands that they are going down with a Titanic failure of governance? #GOPShutdown #NoKings
