For those of you who saw Democratic candidates speaking from Iowa yesterday at the “Liberty and Justice for All” event, just know that it cost $160,000 to be on the stage.

I need to stop telling my kids they can be President if they want... I need to tell them you have to be rich or from a rich family to be President because it’s $160,000 for just one Iowa speech🤦🏾‍♀️ “The American Dream is only for the Wealthy” #BlacksforYang #Yanggang #Yang2020

Our system revolves around the ‘pay to play’ mechanism. Only a certain class has direct access while the rest of us watch through a screen or below a stage. We need more transparency and less corruption. #moneyoutofpolitics

Perhaps instead of speaking there you could DM our moms?
