Trump couldn't care less if he collapses the economy. He wants to go back to the Gilded Age, and will gladly burn America to the ground to live his dictatorial dream. www.joyannreid.com/p/the-daily-...

Donald Trump is torching the economy and he doesn't care. Maybe because he's doing it on purpose?

The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him President of the United States and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things.  Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.

Under the House GOP’s budget plan, the lowest-income taxpayers would see a LOSS of $1,125. The richest 0.1 percent of taxpayers, on the other hand, would see a more than $180,000 GAIN. This is trickle down economics on steroids.
