Do you know what's more dangerous than an
undocumented immigrant in America who gets up at 4am to go to work?
A sitting president who casually mentions we should just let a foreign power obliterate two
American cities filled with millions of people all because he doesn't like how they tend to vote.

A BFD. As people get ready to fill their heating oil tanks for the winter, they learn it will cost 80% more than last year. Your early Christmas Gift from Trump and the Republican Party is that your Christmas present budget will now go to their friends in the oil business.

While Trump was doing midterm rallies, the two men running his campaign were in a pro-Putin statelet getting paid for election advice. Trump's excuse? They're just "outside consultants." Your Wednesday Update is here:
