I was puzzled why the USPS is suddenly considering allowing the shipment of guns through the mail. Could it be because Trump Jr. is building an “Amazon for guns?” The pieces fall into place. #FreedomFromGunViolence #MomSky #SheShed time.com/7303326/grab...

Look at this map. $6.16. $5.76. $5.33. $5.23. $4.99. There is not a single state paying what Trump promised. He said he’d cut prices in HALF on day one. Instead, every state on this map is bleeding. This is his economy. Own it, Donald. #sheshed #voterizer #momsky
