THREAD:
To punish China we've taxed ourselves and bankrupted our farms.

To make us wealthier, we've cut food stamps and health care for the poorest among us.

To make us safer we've abandoned our allies, released hundreds of terrorists, and bombed our own bases.

1/
To afford to run the richest country on earth, we are borrowing a trillion dollars this year.

To lower unemployment, we've halved taxes on corporations and billionaires, and refuse to require a living wage.

2/
To fix immigration, we've closed the border, attempted to stop accepting asylum claims, and shut down our own government three times.

To prevent foreign interference in our elections, we've made diplomacy contingent on foreign interference in our elections.

3/
To deal with corruption & whistleblowers, our President & Attorney General attack our own intelligence community for letting it be known.

Of all the threats we face around the world, the one the President most frequently calls "the enemy of the people" is our own free press.

4/
To help the environment, our federal government is suing states to lower emission and clean water standards.

To ensure fair elections, Senate refuses to approve an FEC appointment (since 2017), leaving them without a quorum.

5/
To prevent spending money on illegal immigrants, we separate them from their families and pay private companies $700 per night to house them.

To prevent abortion, we restrict access to education and methods of avoiding pregnancy, and then punish the pregnant.

6/
The volume, consistency and gravity of the failures of this administration is breathtaking...

7/
...and that's without even considering the myriad of crimes, incidents of obstruction, emolument violations, White House turnover, unfilled appointments, or campaign staffers, lawyers and associates of the President who are currently in prison.
