6. And this is a GOP anti-democratic talkig point

Mar 2018

The GOP and the billionaires that control them would like nothing less than to paint Dems as unpatriotic.

We respect American values. We respect the flag. We condemn oligarchs, billionaires who would destroy the government to cut their own taxes and the politicians they have legally bribed. We condemn those who would torture and those who would use the legal system and FBI to protect their corruption. We condemn those who would appoint their children to high office and demand loyalty to the president over loyalty to America and the constitution.

Don’t get played by the GOP who want us to denigrate America and the flag. We stand behind America. We condemn the GOP and their corrupt billionaire ownership.
