Even magats know Trump is making everything more expensive.
And those idiots don’t understand much, but sometimes they do realize
when cash is being stolen out of their wallets.

He and his team set out to prove that checks and balances don't mean anything. He doesn't care about his poll numbers and neither do the crazies he has running the government and thats because for the last 16 months they have proven that none of it matters. They can and will do whatever they want because nobody has come up with a workable way to stop them.

When we take back the house in November, assuming he doesn't try to pull something and the new congress is seated in January they still won't be able to do anything because he will just ignore them. We need to figure out a non-violent way to enforce the will of the people again but I'm really fearful that we won't be able to do that.
