Oct. 22, 2020 Tweet - "Pres.

Oct. 22, 2020 Tweet - "The American people have been waiting "weeks" for Trump's health care plan for the last 4 years, but he never had a plan -- other than to kick people off coverage.

Oct. 20, 2020 Tweet - "Meet Susan. Susan is a 5th generation farmer from New Berlin, Illinois.

Oct. 16, 2020 Tweet - "Pres. Trump was clear: he wants Supreme Court justices who will help him end the Affordable Care Act. Judge Barrett's hearing did not reassure us that the law is safe.
