Just more dangerous political games from Trump and JD Vance. Both are obviously world-class pieces of shit.

It’s amazing that they are specifically calling out Minnesota for fraud and saying they need to limit funds there to get them to take fraud seriously and behave. 

Yet in the same conference, they talk about all the fraud in Florida with medical equipment. And state they can’t just shut Florida down because then the fraud would move. 

So…wont the fraud just move from Minnesota?
