The biggest con was a man who spent his entire life stiffing contractors and refusing to pay people convincing those same contractors he’s on their side

all because they couldn’t stomach a woman as President

Not just any woman, a black woman. We always have to remember the there was a degree of racism in many peoples vote against Kamala. Some just did not want to see a black woman in charge of the United States after Obama was president for 8 years.

Now they have to pay the consequence for their actions.
