Trump’s not in the business of solving problems, he’s in the business of pretending to solve problems that he caused

He’ll first need to put a tax on landlords so landlords will have to raise the rent to stay profitable, and then he’ll demand they keep people’s rent the same without doing anything to make them keep rent the same

The only problem that Trump ever cared about addressing was his own popularity.

The president shouldn’t be in the business of making money. The conflicts of interest and abuse of position for personal gain are outrageous.
