Thanks to Trump: 🧵1/

More than 185K Americans are now dead.

More than 100K American businesses have failed

27% of Americans did not make their rent or mortgage payment last month.

Bankruptcies are at the highest level in 10 years, & expected to surge.

Over the last 22 weeks more than 57 million Americans filed new claims for unemployment history.

NYC just reported that it had an unemployment rate of almost 20% during the month of July.

There is no other economic period with a comparable scale of unemployment claims.

31% of US workers that were brought back to work after being laid off during the early stages of the novel coronavirus pandemic have been laid off a second time

Half of all US workers that have been laid off during this pandemic believe that their jobs losses are permanent.

This slowdown is an economic depression that makes 2008-2009 look rather pleasant in comparison -- and Trump owns it.

The stock market tells a different story of all time highs because it's propped up by $3T of fiscal stimulus and $2T of monetary stimulus. It's an illusion.

This economic crisis is building, too.

There may be 40 million or more people homeless soon if conditions do not improve -- and with the Senate on recess due to Mitch McConnell not caring at all about American families or small businesses -- chances are that time will come.

5/
Many families are struggling even to feed themselves.

Imagine tens of millions of Americans going to bed hungry at night.

It's not far fetched.

It's happening every night now.

The hunger crisis is real -- and the republican regime does not care about those suffering.

Trump and his enablers have hollowed out America.

This is but an empty shell of a country, one that once held great promise and hope.

We have to move beyond this dark time.

It's time to help bring about the largest voter turnout in our history!

We have to mobilize to win!
