In a roundtable interview with MSNBC's Chris Jansing that included Hollywood actors and other political leaders, former Sen. Barbara Boxer said "we" have to "make" the middle class understand that Trump is not their friend. The panel included Jamie Lee Curtis, California Secretary of State Alex Padilla (D), a Black Lives Matter activist, and Tony Goldwyn, star of ABC's Scandal and grandson of MGM studio mogul Samuel Goldwyn.

"I want to jump in with something specific that he did on the very first day that didn't get that much coverage," Boxer said. "There was an order that was signed that made it more expensive now for middle income home buyers to buy homes, and as a result, tens of thousands fewer Americans will do it. We have to make sure that the middle class understands he's not their friend."

I wonder if these stars realize this yet.

Honestly, a box of rocks is smarter than ex-Senator Boxer.

I can' think of a single case where that's ever happened.

Barbara’s not my friend, so she’s going to have a tough time convincing me of anything.

Democrats and hollywood are no friends of the middle class. People have seen the last 8 years and know the truth.

“Friend” is a relative term.

He’s the closest thing to a “friend” I’ve had in the white house since Reagan.

The Democrats have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are in fact the enemy of the middle class.
They have been at the forefront of the illegal alien inundation that has been causing the unemployment in many industries that once employed Americans that now rely on illegal aliens.

They have been the champions of illegal aliens and against the rule of law and the citizens. *

I understand that very clearly.

*Ably assisted by Democrats in R jerseys

There are all kinds of things liberals must make people believe even though those things are obviously not true.

That is intrinsic to Liberalism, because the entire philosophy is a lie.
