Watch this. It shows why we should all do the right thing and stay home to the fullest extent possible. All of us can help slow the spread of the virus, protecting the elderly, the vulnerable, and each other. washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/…

Wow. I paid more in federal taxes each year as a poor ass graduate student than Trump did in 2016 and 2017 ($1500, $750 + $750).
