E. Faye Williams: Running for the money

(TriceEdneyWire.com)—Some run for office to serve the people—to help them make their lives better. Trump never got that message. He spent a lot of money those years he was sitting on the sidelines think­ing about the damage he could do for the not so well-off if he got back in the White House.

He hired Elon Musk to figure things out for him with DOGE. That caused firing a lot of people from jobs they’d held for years. He didn’t help anyone I know in his first term, and he’s doing even less now. Democracy is threatened and political violence is a major prob­lem under his watch.

He did everything he could to make some quick money for himself and his family. Instead of allowing Elon do all of his destruction in the field, he brought him to the White House to run a car sales lot on the lawn with Tesla cars. After Trump got his Tesla, it seems the friend­ship began falling apart and they began hurling insults at each other.

The insults grew once Elon left the White House and took his boy who Trump didn’t seem to like hanging around his desk. With all the boy saw, I don’t think any of it influenced him to want to be Presi­dent of anything!

By the time Elon left, I think some were beginning to prefer Elon to Trump! They’d begun to see what would happen to them once Trump’s bill passed. In those few days before the vote on the Big Ugly Bill, critics were invit­ed to the White House and when their dear leader finished, I don’t know what he promised, but they were whipped into shape! They came running out with their dear leader’s demand to pass the bill with their little gifts and whatever promises he made to them, with no change in the fact that among the 17 million Americans were many of their constituents losing their health care coverage or Medicaid.

Many will have community hos­pitals wiped out causing them to travel up to 100 miles for health­care. GOP Reps were seen cheer­ing about all the losses to their constituents they’d been elected to support. Their dear leader was so satisfied that he flew off on a victo­ry tour to the Iowa State Fair and returned to spend an hour on the phone with his dear friend, Vlad­imir Putin, who went on to bomb Ukraine the same night!

With endless immunity, dear leader continues profiting from the Presidency by advertising Teslas, and selling Bibles, gold watches, tennis shoes, MAGA products, co­logne, perfume, cell phones, influ­ence and God only knows what else from the White House!

The bill will make poor people poorer without healthcare, jobs, food and more. All of this is shame­ful. Now their dear leader has bragged that he now has more power and gravitas than before!

Hakeem Jeffries reminded his GOP colleagues that draining the swamp looks a lot like them and the tax scam that was jammed through Congress would under­mine the quality of life of everyday Americans. He called the budget an “immoral document” and said “We’re getting chaos and corrup­tion. It’s shameful and reckless. People will die due to cuts in this bill. All of us should question what deals were cut in those backrooms.”

Jeffries said Democrats are a “Hell no on the big ugly bill, and it will continue to be, but we must press on for the victory for those who need us to do so.” Meanwhile, GOP’s dear leader and DeSantis were laughing about people being eaten by alligators off the coast of Florida!

Don’t forget J.D. Vance cast the vote that could have killed this Big Ugly Bill! Once he called Trump practically everything but a child of God, but did an about face and gave Trump the victory. He now argues Trump’s case better than Trump himself!
