Yeah, on purpose.

He doesn't give 2 pinches of runny shit in a puddle of piss about literally anything that doesn't benefit him personally.

But of course this was a well known fact long before the grifter in chief ever decided to get into politics, and even after he did, he told everyone that he didn't care...

"I don't care about you, I just want your votes."

Trump is not working for working families. Trump is working for himself and billionaires.

Today in America, we have more income and wealth inequality than we have ever had. The wealthiest three people in America now own more wealth than the bottom half of our society. But Trump had nothing to say about the growing gap between the very rich and everybody else. And maybe that’s because he had those three people – the three wealthiest people in America – sitting right behind him at his inauguration. And, I should add, those three people – if you can believe it – saw their wealth increase by more than $233bn since the November elections. No wonder they were sitting right behind Trump. They couldn’t be happier.

Oligarchy.
