“Out of touch” isn’t it.

A president who gilds the Oval Office in gold, slaps his own name on a cultural institution, tears down the East Wing for his own vanity project, and then tells us the affordability crisis is all in our heads.

It’s not out of touch; it’s contempt for the people he governs.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

Punishing college students for protesting him.

Pressuring TV networks to fire late night talk show hosts for criticizing him.

Suing newspapers for reporting he doesn’t like.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Trump’s executive order will hurt kids and parents in virtually every school district in the country.
