Donald Trump claimed he would help American workers. Now, he’s betraying them

Forget candidate Trump. He ran as a friend to the working man. President Donald Trump is a friend to Elon Musk and other billionaires who are implementing Project 2025.
We know what comes next because Trump has spent the first month in office executing a radical plan to hand government over to the billionaires. It’s called Project 2025, and this anti-worker, pro-corporate plan previews what’s ahead. Democrat Chris Murphy represents Connecticut in the U.S. Senate.
And it’s not just Musk – Trump has surrounded himself with a band of billionaires who could not be more out of touch with the everyday experience of most Americans. The federal minimum wage has been the same since 2009: $7.25. Sixty-two percent of Americans support raising the minimum wage to $15 because they agree if you work a full-time job, you shouldn’t be living at or below the poverty level.
