2. Good suggestion. Job Corps and AmeriCorps are important organizations that trump's henchmen want to destroy.

As soon as I read first line of your post, I thought of Foreman.

From Wikipedia: "At age 16, Foreman had a change of heart and convinced his mother to sign him up for Job Corps after seeing an ad for the Corps on TV. As part of Job Corps, Foreman earned his GED and trained to become a carpenter and bricklayer.[15] After moving to Pleasanton, California, with the help of a supervisor, he began to train."


trump's attempt to close these organizations is as bad as anything he's doing.
