1. Trump's lies about the economy and how Dems always do better for the economy and for working men and women.

2. The corruption of this administration and how it affect ordinary Americans thru the shredding of the social safety net, higher prices for goods and services, and defrauding the government through unpaid taxes and corrupt contracting practices.
