trump running for re-election on the economy

[StanleyCush1]

In my opinion the Democratic and Republican parties are the same in to many ways. Trump ran as a Republican but is independent in his view of our country and its problems. The elite in our governing country club didn't want an outsider into their business. None of the Democrats appear to have accepted all the changes Trump is attempting to accomplish. As for the Republicans many very intelligent members of congress are on board because they realize the President is for real. Drain the swamp is what we as the american voter's need to do, our government at all levels is corruption at it's best.

There is a differance between a living wage and minimum wade. Not all jobs are ment to give you a living wage. It's just the min you must pay someone for their time.

McDonalds complains they can not afford to raise the minimum wage and yet 3 years ago they gave a 20billion dollar payout to shareholders!

Dunkin Donuts says 15dollars an hour is outrageous...and yet he makes over 4 thousand dollars an hour


point being....the people who do nothing to stimulate the economy are raking in millions and the economy going no where...used to be companies were happy with a certain amount of profit....but now they want to out do the others to see who can be a millionaire first...….look at under Bush...….put us into a recession and yet billionaires tripled in that amount of time
