Hey John,
Right now, Donald Trump is building a $300 million ballroom at the White House, paid for by some of the biggest corporations in America:
As construction crews pour concrete for his latest monument to greed, millions of Americans are wondering how they’ll afford groceries this week.
That’s because WIC and other food assistance programs are at risk during the government shutdown.
You’ve probably heard the phrase “Let them eat cake.”
It’s what Marie Antoinette supposedly said when told that poor families in France had no bread.
Whether she said it or not, the meaning is clear: A ruling class so out of touch that they can’t see the suffering around them.
Now, centuries later, Donald Trump and his corporate backers are living out that same story.
This is what oligarchy looks like, John, and we won’t let it define us.
Join me in demanding that the corporations funding Trump’s ballroom contribute an equal amount to food banks across the country:
Add your name ››
In solidarity,
Abdul
