Trump’s presidency has brought a windfall to billionaires while hurting the poor. In these conditions, democracy cannot survive

Trump ran on a promise to lower costs on day one, but a year into his presidency, the real beneficiaries are his billionaire donors. Instead of making life more affordable for everyday Americans, Trump has used the presidency to enrich himself and his billionaire allies, while making the largest cuts to Medicaid and food assistance in history and leaving working families behind.
As families struggle with rising costs, Trump has effectively turned the White House into a slush fund, running the federal government like a personal ATM.
