Trump doesn't care

Trump supporters, why do you vote for a man who clearly doesn't represent your interests? He doesn't care about you? Donald Trump doesn't respect you, his own supporters. He has discouraged recommended precautions to avoid spreading the coronavirus at his rallies, which has caused infection among people who didn't wear masks and sat close together. Meanwhile, he is glad he doesn't have to shake hands with "disgusting people" (his words).

Have you had COVID-19 or know someone who has? More than 228,000 Americans are dead from coronavirus while many of these deaths could have been avoided.

Are you worried about sending your children back to school? Trump wants all schools to fully open, regardless of the risks to students and staff.

Do you pay income taxes? Trump has avoided paying income taxes (or as little as $750) for the last several years. While you work every day and have most likely paid much more than $750 a year in income taxes, Trump hasn't contributed to vital programs the American people depend on, such as upkeep of roads and bridges, education, postal service and more, that income taxes are used for. The president of the United States doesn't take responsibility for helping to support the people he supposedly represents.

How's your health care insurance? Trump is trying to have the Affordable Care Act repealed at a time when people need it most. He has eliminated environmental regulations in order to help his big donors, leading to worse pollution of the air we breathe and the water we drink.

Many Republicans have said "enough." and will not support him anymore.

Think carefully and listen to scientists before casting your ballot this fall.
