President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

It’s not the influence, its that the money went to trump. The money went to him, his family or his companies that are closely held. For exampleHe rented a $600a night hotel room for a week to the RNC for$60,000.00. Multiply it by 400 rooms. All profit to a trump business. All the merchandise sold came from a wholesaler, owned by Trump Enterpirses. THe RNC paid him $20 a hat that he bought for $1. Multiply that by 100,000 hats, t-shirts, key chains, golf head covers ... Trump is making money off the donations because he’s directing the campaign to spend the money on trump businesses, at jacked up prices. He probably signed a contract with the election committee that pays him a fee for each speech and appearance, as if he’s a paid actor.

 

I do think Trump's surprise win made the inauguration one last chance for special interests to "show their respect" to Trump. Trump's inaugural committee raised twice as much as previous efforts and spent it all - on what nobody knows.

And Rolling Stone had this last May.

All true but chicken change when you consider Fatfckck has ordered Mnuchin to print up trainloads of $100 bills daily and ship the cash to money bins in Russia.

There are hundreds of thousands of federal government positions which have been unfilled for two years now. All those positions have salaries and other expenses budgeted. Where is it?

Remember the subplot in "Superman III" where Richard Pryor was a crooked computer whiz working for a mega bank in Metropolis, and he programmed the computers to deposit all rounding errors less than a penny into his account, and it added up to billions?

It's pretty much like that.

Because yeah, a lame-ass 35-year-old flop movie would be a typical source where Team Fucko would get its evil inspiration.

 

The greatest pageviews.

 

My money was on a Russian national.

 

FIFY.

 

I figured Nunes might get an offer. Why not go full lapdog?

 

Another on a long list of days filled with news that would end any other presidency.

My money is still on Trump finishing out this term. And the Dems better get their shit together and come up with a candidate that everyone can get behind. Another two years of this shitshow will be bad enough. Six more years is unimaginable.

I have no idea if the Adderall story is true. But it certainly one where the actions (and sniffing) fit.

And I can't say this enough: Does this guy know he can shut the fuck up once in awhile?

Regardless of party, I'll vote for the person who shuts the fuck up for awhile.

 

I flip-flop on whether I want to see Kushner or Don Jr. spend more time in prison. Lizard blood runs warmer.

 

I used to work for a company where the CEO gave $1 million to the inaugural committtee. I know he wanted a certain law repealed as it was important to the business and it got repealed. Now, it likely would have happened anyway, but I’m sure that he or his people got Trump’s ear as a result of the donation.

And the stories about the massive payments to the party planner who didn’t seem to do much cry out as a kickback scheme.
