America First is the name of a brand new politics app that is designed to promote the candidacy of Donald Trump and Mike Pence for President and Vice President of the USA respectively.
The app offers a wide array of text and multimedia content that are designed to help Trump's supporters and volunteers to better engage with the campaign, while making it easier for them to connect with each other.
