This is what Trump is spending our tax dollars on.

If you’re disabled, housebound or living in poverty and unable to boycott the big retailers this weekend… it’s ok.
Many of us save up for months waiting for a sale to get items we need to survive.
When you’re sick & in legislated poverty, some boycotts are inaccessible.
We need community care.
