It is verified that the net worth has increased three times faster than the top one percent. Trump’s actually low on the increase to the bottom 50 percent and the difference between the two numbers.
According to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, the net worth of the bottom half of the population was 1,070,183 millions of dollars at the start of 2017. As of the third quarter of 2019, it was 1,668,034. That’s an increase of 55.86 percent, higher than the 47 percent Trump cited. For the top one percent, their net worth was 29,955,829 millions of dollars. In the third quarter of 2019, it was 34,533,370. That’s an increase of 15.28 percent, making the increase for the bottom half of Americans more than 3.5 times the increase for the top half.

Did Trump or Barr fire the DA that was investigating them?
Famously, Trump fired Comey because of that "Russia thing." And then Barr just this last week intervened to ignore career prosecutors' recommendation of the sentencing for Roger Stone. That's two incredibly famous, top-of-mind examples that specifically relate to Trump's protection of himself and his folks. What are you talking about?

As someone who's a bit of a Sporting fan it was great to see Fast Eddie pardoned (hey, is that Jerry Rice?). Our President works for the common Man!

Maybe to some low information, or -ahem- brain washed voters, sure. But not to this guy:
"Everyday people who find themselves caught up in... recognize the futility in fighting for their rights... unfair and cruel over-sentencing is the rule... And it's a racist criminal justice system. No one is doing more to fix this broke criminal justice system than President Trump; he opened the jobs, contracts, and opportunities for all residents regardless of race or economic background."
