2 Weeks After Midterms Trump Announces He's Already Hitting Campaign Trail Again - to Help MS Racist

President Donald Trump's actual work as president has all but sputtered out, with at least one conservative commentator saying he's doing the job he was elected to do just a few hours a day. In the weeks leading up the the November midterm elections, President Trump held a rally nearly every day, and in some cases up to two or even three a day.

All that traveling comes at taxpayer expense, and takes time away from Trump performing his duties as president. For whatever reason (some say rain) he refused to attend s historic ceremony in Europe marking the end of World War I, and upon returning refused to even visit Arlington National Cemetery to honor Veterans Day.

But the so-called "populist" president continues to make time to campaign and fundraise for his own re-election, and to help other Republicans.

And probably more funds for his legal bills, which he's taking from these rally's more than likely. Wonder if he's really getting close to having to declare bankruptcy again? He'll help the Democrat by showing up. People are running from trump now in droves.
