Here is a collection of Twitter posts reflecting some of the worst of Trump's policies:
Adam Schiff (@AdamSchiff)2/23/20, 11:59In the two weeks since the GOP Senate refused to hold Trump accountable, he has:
-Intervened in the sentencing of his accomplice
-Called for prosecution of his "enemies"
-Punished those who spoke out out
-Fired the DNI for briefing Congress
Are they proud of their vote now?
Robert Reich (@RBReich)2/22/20, 19:59To house Trump on his golf resorts, American taxpayers have so far paid out 12 times the cost of all the travel Obama did in his first four years. And much of this money has gone into Trump's pockets, because they're his resorts.
Most corrupt administration in American history.
Alex Ward (@AlexWardVox)2/21/20, 13:23I asked a senior White House official if Trump really removed Maguire over the Russia briefing. Official didn't mince words.
"That's absolutely why. Anyone from here on out that opposed POTUS will get fired."
That bad, I asked?
"Yup," official said. "He's not f***ing around."
Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan)2/21/20, 15:28Last night Trump called for the impeachment of Barack Obama - who hasn't been president for three years. This bats**t demand from the sitting president won't feature on any front pages of any newspapers or any nightly news headlines on TV. We have normalized an abnormal person.
Bette Midler (@BetteMidler)2/21/20, 09:28At his rally, #Trump complained about #Parasite winning the Oscar. I'm more upset that a parasite won the White House.
Matthew Miller (@matthewamiller)2/18/20, 14:21Really hard to think of a collection of individuals less deserving of presidential intervention than Joe Arpaio, Scooter Libby, Dinesh D'Souza, Conrad Black, Bernie Kerik, Rod Blagojevich, and Michael Milken, plus a handful of right wing arsonists and war criminals.
Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC)2/18/20, 16:31Trump pardons war criminals and convicts to normalize the coming pardons of his political hacks and co-conspirators.
Asha Rangappa (@AshaRangappa_)2/18/20, 18:33Funny that the folks who think that impeachment tries to "undo an election" by citizen-voters don't have problems when Trump uses his pardon power to "undo a conviction" by citizen-juries.
Wait, what? "It's in the Constitution!" you say? Yes, exactly.
Robert Reich (@RBReich)2/13/20, 19:51Total student loan debt: $1.69 trillion
Total cost of the 2017 Republican tax cuts for corporations and billionaires: $1.9 trillion
America has socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else. twitter.com/DebtCrisisOrg/...
Rob Reiner (@robreiner)2/13/20, 10:58The President of the United States breaks the law every day. Republicans are more than happy to aid & abet his lawbreaking. It's up to the majority of US to hold him accountable. Nov. 2020. Truth, Decency, The Rule of Law, and Democracy itself are on the Ballot.
Robert Reich (@RBReich)2/10/20, 14:57Trump's budget is one of his cruelest proposals yet. It would:
- Cut $850,000,000,000 from Medicare
- Cut $270,000,000,000 from Medicaid
- Cut $30,000,000,000 from Social Security
Swing voters, if you're listening: Take note of where Trump's priorities lie.

Trump's attorneys Ken Starr and Robert Ray contributed $8,400 to Mitch McConnell last year.
Starr has also donated to Lindsey Graham's campaign.
Jay Sekulow has contributed to multiple Republican senators, including Ted Cruz and John Thune.
Our system is woefully broken.
