Fun fact: Marie Antionette never actually said the infamous “Let them eat cake” line…

…but I’d bet another pampered monarch in a ridiculous blonde wig has said these words before.

Donald Trump’s “let them eat cake” philosophy:

• $240,000 DAILY cost to taxpayers for his Mar-a-Lago vacations
• $40 billion “gift” to Argentina (while defunding the CDC and TSA)
• $1.2 billion vanity project to rename the Defense Department
• $1 million DAILY cost to force the National Guard on American cities
• $2,400 loss in purchasing power for the avg. family due to rising inflation

So what if Americans face mass flight cancellations or hours-long security lines this holiday season? Who cares if there’s a deadly hurricane or a massive measles outbreak or soybean farmers lose their livelihoods?

Let them eat cake!

America has already toppled one out-of-touch tyrant. We WILL do it again. Pick up a microphone. Speak your mind. Join protests. Organize. Refuse to be scared or silenced.

And, if you’re as tired as I am of funding Trump’s Versailles lifestyle while he rifles through your wallet: Chip in $15 to help me defend IL-06 and continue my crusade for accountability. When the day of reckoning comes, I’ll make sure justice is served.

Yours,
