trump wants to hurt Americans, and doesn't hide it. All Americans should be scared , because he will hurt you unless you support his lying to you. all his corruption , taking away free speech, taking away all your rights , and fixing elections, and setting up courts for self protections and putting himself above the rule of law. His supporters need to realize he'll hurt them the most.
