This needs to be a new Lincoln project ad, tRump endangers meat plant workers, forcing them

back to work through executive order in order to enrich China,

While lobbying to keep operating during the pandemic, the U.S. industry sent a record amount of pork to a country vital to its growth.

In all, a record amount of the pork produced in the United States — 129,000 tons — was exported to China in April.

By the way, Smithfields, the largest pork produce in the country is owned by China so by signing that order tRump was enriching a Chinese manufacturer at the cost of 89 American meat packer lives.

is that Trump is an incompetent loser not fit to lead.

They might bring it up within that context but the main message is that trump is a fuck8ng idiot causing disaster.

which is why they are probably very effective.
