Any money spent on the Melania "Be Best" whatever the hell that is.
All money spent protected the chinless wonder boys, especially when they go to shoot defenseless animals that they don't eat.
All office supplies ordered by Jared and Ivanka.
All fast food orders by 45.
All commercial advertising on Faux News.
All money spent on phones for the big orange baby.
All money spent on Sarah Sanders and other liars. Well, we could pay for Medicare for All if we just got the money from all the liars (I'm talking to you, syphilitic tortoise).
Gosh, I did not realize I was so angry. But feel free to post your suggestions on where to get money and how to spend it below
