fast food restaurants are much cleaner than his "high class" restaurant. How often does he eat there, or at Mar-A-Lago?

Trump restaurants have been cited for rodents, roaches, and filth.

Here is one list...

But a former business associate told the Daily News that despite being a self-described “clean hands freak” and germaphobe, Trump has “always been far more focused on creating an image for his properties than in spending what it takes to make them excellent”.

There is no point arguing about the President’s vermin.
Everyone in the the country hates him except those who listen to Fox or Limbaugh. And those will NEVER hear the facts above — Fox feeds them lies and will never say the above.

How do we fix this?
Don’t talk facts with people. Talk Fox. If they bring up Trump or politics, change the subject to Fox. Tell them that Fox is lying to them, so they’ll vote for tax cuts for billionaires. Tell them Fox’s owner got a $2 BILLION tax cut, and that he laughs at them and calls Fox viewers “useful idiots”. Ask them how it feels to be a sucker getting screwed by rightwing billionaires.
