This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that?
The 25 richest families are collectively $358.7 billion richer than a year ago, with a combined fortune totaling $2.9 trillion.

They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.

Pretty much all my female friends have been assaulted at one point or another; at school, in the forces, just on a night out.
It wasn't immigrants doing those things because, frankly, you didn't get many of them in rural Yorkshire.
It was men.

Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

This now goes to Trump's desk to become law, having already passed the House.
