Remember: One of the biggest deficit drivers of the past 20 years are GOP tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations. The issue isn't programs that help millions of Americans, it's giveaways to the rich.

This is too good.
Donald Trumpâs mugshot has already made the Atlanta Beltline.
The mural, which is near the Historic Fourth Ward Skatepark, was created by popular Atlanta muralist Chris Veal. Â
Veal said it took him about 3 hours to paint the mural and the reaction to the mural has been positive with people laughing and smiling and giving him high-fives.
When asked what he hoped people would get out of it, Veal said that he just wants people to get a kick out of it, and he hopes it inspires people to vote.

Trump spending 15 minutes in a jail to be processed, arrested, and given a mugshot isn't "gangsta."
It's an insult to every minority that is given jail time for petty crimes. While a white man asserted his white privilege and, walked free from multiple felony charges and one serious felony charge.
It's an insult to every civil right leader, to every political prisoner in a suppressed county, to everyone being held by dictators for far less.
It's more proof that the criminal justice justice system is two tiered. One set of rules for the rich and one set of rules for the poor.
You can't tell me one Black person that would walk free after 91 felony charges on 4 indictments.
Now there are Black supporters for Trump. Without a doubt. There was also Jewish supporter for the Holocaust.
Some minorities are in love with the idea of being Trump. A man up to this point has avoided any accountability. Many admire that, and call it strength. The fact remains its white privilege and justice system set up so the cards are in his favor.
Trump will not succeed, and he will go to prison. It will be a privileged prison that wouldn't be granted to any minority.
Trump is a scared man hiding behind a political party, and money. Both gave him power far beyond their control. However the Justice Department is slow the day is coming for Trump.
