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."
"In our case as celebrities or actors, we can -- we're useful in convening people. Like people come show up sometimes just because they want a selfie," Goldwyn said of their importance. .......

Hey,Babs...hate to break it to ya but Mr Trump’s having just told President Pedro of Mexico to go fornicate himself is a very positive sign that he *is* my friend.
You would have a harder time convincing the middle class that you are.
Obama wanted to make it easier for people with low credit ratings to get a mortgage. So he had the government pay the lenders a subsidy to keep the interest rate lower than what the lenders would normally charge riskier borrowers. Trump put an end to the subsidy. This is what she is talking about.
Isn’t this how we got in trouble - giving subsidized mortgages to people for homes they couldn’t afford?
See my comment - #64.
Don’t ya love it? They haven’t figured out why they lost the election, they still can’t find their asses with both hands, they’re saying increasingly stupid things almost every day, neither they nor most Republicans have a clue as to who and what they’re dealing with in Trump and Trump’s popularity continues to grow. What more could we ask for?
Karl Marx HATED the middle class.
He HATED them.
He wanted their blood FLOWING in the streets.
You can NOT use Marx’s ideas to help the middle class.
Even if you repackage it as “socialism”.
But you middle class Marxists keep voting for Barbara Boxer and her big socialist agenda. :)
Boxer said, “make.”. Make the middle class love us. If not, the beatings will continue.

Thank you, Boxer and Chukie Schumer are lying their way about what president Trump actually signed.
We should point out their lie every chance we get.
Dear Barbara...Go piss up a rope! NOBODY believes your liberal lies anymore.
Delusion runs deep on the Left
Does that position imply that Barbara Boxer and the Democratic Party are friends to the middle class?
Just tell a bigger mountain of lies...right Barbara?
I don’t believe her for a nanosecond, but just for laughs, can someone tell us, what one thing out of all Trump has done so far this week, is BB twisting to make it appear as a negative?
I'd like to see Boxer, San Fran Nan, Chucky Shumer and several others sent on a "fact finding trip" to Timbuktu and then placed on the No Fly list. Let them figure out how to get back.
We understood long ago that Barbara Boxer was injurious to the health of the rest of America....not only Californicate.
“Barbara Boxer: We Have To Make The Middle Class Understand That Trump Is Not Their Friend”
Every day that passes proves the point that Trump REALLY IS on our side, that he’s busy trying to get good jobs up and running in this country, and keep terrorists out. All that we see is you and your ilk CONTINUING to try to phuck us.
Your time is OVER, hag! At least have the dignity to slink away quietly.
“We have to make sure that the middle class understands he’s not their friend.”
Right. Because middle-class people are too stupid to understand who their friends are without you “making” them understand, right Barbara?
