PENNSYLVANIA — Donald Trump has spent a shocking amount of time on his Twitter account since he took office. He tweets so often that his account serves as a snapshot of what’s going on in his brain. But what is he thinking about? Is it how to reduce the rising cost of prescription drugs for families in Pennsylvania? Is it his lawsuit to dismantle the Affordable Care Act and protections for people with pre-existing conditions? Is it the stagnant wage growth that leaves families behind?
Nope. Here’s a comparison of how often Trump has spouted off about himself and the cable news circus vs. the issues that impact working families.Here’s a deeper look into Trump’s Record on Twitter:

“Donald Trump’s Twitter shows just how out of touch he is with working families,” said Pennsylvania Democratic Party Spokesperson Andres Anzola. “Instead of lowering prescription drug costs, improving access to public education, or raising wages, Donald Trump has used his time in office thinking about himself, his wealthy donors and his wealthy friends. Working Pennsylvanians deserve a president who puts their needs first. That’s why we’re working around the clock to make sure he’s defeated this November.”
