People harmed by Trump include former "translators for the U.S. military in Afghanistan, and people fleeing countries with oppressive governments, such as Venezuela, Nicaragua, Somalia, and many other places":

Thought of the day. #billionaires why do you need that much money? I'm having a hell of a time finding a job because they PAY TOO MUCH! I don't want the headaches of a 150k job when I just want to live in a mini house and read books. Books don't cost a million dollars. What the hell costs a billion dollars that you have to railroad people for? #money #greed

Looks like more of the same fromm the Republicans.
