Donald Trump First
Sending billions to Argentina while laying off Americans at home. Letting Qatar build a base on US soil coz they bribed Trump with a plane and are investing billions in his personal business ventures. Doesn’t seem like “America First”, does it?

So much for lowering prices
There it is. Trump’s Treasury nominee just said “extending” Trump’s tax handouts for billionaires is their TOP priority: “This is the single most important economic issue of the day.”
