Though many claim to embrace both the Golden Rule and Jesus' command to love others as they love themselves, an army of self-identified faith-filled Americans seem incapable of asking a seemingly elemental question:

I'm watching the press conference between President Macron and trump, and the President of France speaks and understands TWO languages way better than trump does, struggling with just English.

It's such a colossal embarrassment having trump representing the U.S.

“Trumpism will not be defeated by politicians inside the D.C. Beltway,” Sanders said. “It will only be defeated by millions of Americans…in every state in this country, who come together in a strong grassroots movement and say no to oligarchy, no to authoritarianism, no to kleptocracy.”

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice.

The result is demagoguery and corruption.

2) Insider-trading

3) Political payoffs

4) Fraud
