The #TrumpPandemicFailure hit Black-owned businesses hardest: nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Trump has withheld aid to "Democratic" cities and "Blue States" with large Black populations even as this #COVID19 negligence has caused untold death and despair in minority communities. washingtonpost.com/local/trumps-h…
#COVID19 has killed Black people at double the rate of Whites.

Critics say Trump de-emphasized containing the virus as soon as it was clear Blacks were dying at a higher rate than whites. #Racism #BlackLivesMatter #TrumpPandemicFailure

Here is a Trump scandal so bad, even Fox News is talking about it. How DID @IvankaTrump get so many Chinese trademarks approved in the days after her dad’s first meeting with President Xi? #QuidProQuo #TrumpCrimeFamily
They made Jimmy Carter give up his peanut farm.

Ivanka was awarded trademarks from China in 2017, 2018 and 2019 as her dad negotiated with Xi. Meanwhile US farmers fell into bankruptcy & US manufacturing entered a full year recession in 2019 ahead of the #TrumpCrash of 2020.
Trump himself has received hundreds of millions in loans from foreign powers, millions in direct business, and he and Ivanka have been gifted trademarks from China in the midst of trade discussions. All of this is a flagrant violation of the Constitution.

THREAD:

Trump’s complete failure with #COVID19 turned what could have been a mild recession into a full blown economic crash—one that we may not fully recover from for many years.

How badly has @realDonaldTrump failed on the economy? (1/12) Image
The economy was weak heading into 2020 because of the failure of the #GOPTaxScam. Trump claimed his tax cuts for corporations and the already-rich would “skyrocket” the economy & deliver 5-6% GDP growth.

Reality: 2020 began with economists predicting growth of just 1.8%. (2/12)
Growing consumer debt was also slowing the economy’s potential heading into 2020. As The Wall Street Journal reported: “consumer debt, not counting mortgages, has climbed to $4 trillion—higher than it has ever been even after adjusting for inflation.” (3/12)

THREAD: Even if you set aside all the crimes he’s committed as President, we now have a clear picture of 10 provable crimes Trump committed BEFORE he even became President #FridayThoughts #TrumpTrainwreck (1/11)
1. Sexual Assault.

More than two dozen women have accused Trump of sexual misconduct, assault, or rape. In 2020, Bill Barr is protecting Trump in a case where he refuses to give a DNA sample that would theoretically clear his name.
2. Racial Discrimination.

Before becoming the #BirtherInChief, Trump already had a long and well-documented history of racism, much of it illegal.
