If somehow you can excuse his lies and that he inherited Obama’s economy, remember Trump told us to drink Bleach as the COVID 19 pandemic began!
So LET’S VOTE for a proven leader who will work with all people, serves the people, and wants us all to thrive!!

Protect healthcare!!
The ACA protects folks with pre-existing conditions from being denied coverage, allows young people to stay on a parent's plan until they’re 26, and expands Medicaid. But Donald Trump still wants to end it – and he only has “concepts of a plan” for how he’d replace it.
We can’t let that happen. Vote for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz to not only protect your health care, but to make it more affordable for everyone.

.@MichelleObama: I hope that you will forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indifferent to Donald Trump’s erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slumlord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse. All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do

They don’t call @MichelleObama the closer for nothing. Few people can spill wisdom and fire up a crowd the way Mrs O can, and that is all on full display with @KamalaHarris in Michigan today.

The Washington Post hasn’t sat out a presidential endorsement since 1988. Don’t tell me that Kamala Harris isn’t being held to unfair standards when the Los Angeles Times and Washington Post both had owners intervene to stop their own editorial boards from endorsing her. This is not how newspapers are supposed to work. This is the same Washington Post who claimed “democracy dies in darkness.”
No, it dies with clueless, terrible billionaires.

I’m so proud of my girl, Kamala. Barack and I are so excited to endorse her as the Democratic nominee because of her positivity, sense of humor, and ability to bring light and hope to people all across the country. We’ve got your back, @KamalaHarris!
Let’s go!! #Harris2024

Tonight, I am proud to have earned the support needed to become our party’s nominee.
Over the next few months, I'll be traveling across the country talking to Americans about everything on the line. I fully intend to unite our party and our nation, and defeat Donald Trump.
