The GQP attempting to pull off THE largest transfer of wealth in this country’s history while idiots in red hats, who will PAY for it, applaud blindly.
Spending bill that cuts taxes for billionaires and takes away healthcare and food programs from the poorest of Americans families. People will be dying and will go hungry.
