(82,383 posts)live in middle class conditions and have a retirement and a home and everything they could need. Yet they are "angry" because of people whose lives are so much harder? Hard to sympathize with their "anger." And letting Trump stir them up like that.

(9,350 posts)That tweet is truly amazing. Donald Trump has made millions/billions of dollars partly by screwing over America (clothes made overseas and scamming people out of their money through bad real estate deals and Trump University) yet he claims this country is not great. On the other hand, mother's who have lost their children to gun violence express hope in the America's future.
