President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I just want to chime in on the Times or Post story that documented how much Trump charges the government to use his property.

They even have him charging the government to him to eat at his own property.

This. Is. So. Illegal.

In a sane world, he is asked to leave the White House immediately.

He’s using his properties for profit off the government while he is president.

There is no debate here. It’s illegal.

 

They only live by the parts that are convenient for them.

 

The suspects are very fine people.

 

Believing a 2,000 year old book that’s been interpreted and re-interpreted, and re-interpreted....and re-interpreted as gospel while calling shit with a dozen sources on the record, “fake news.”

But I’m the embarrassing one.

 

One day we are going to learn just how much we have to pay for him to golf and to travel to his properties. It is an absolute disgrace that there is zero transparency.

And that’s not even counting how many groups have events at his properties to curry favor.

 

Just a colossally stupid human being. How can you read that and think is he is qualified to be in office?

 

Textualists and that whole pesky emolument clause. It's really more of a guideline than something actually written in the Constitution. Oh, no, wait. It is actually in the freakin Constitution.

 

Im not laughing at that notion. His klan always seems to win the close ones.

 

If you agreed with her politics you'd love her.

I don't agree with all of her politics. But she's very qualified.

 

And the ABA called her qualified. Makes you wonder about the record number of Trumpist judges deemed unqualified.

 

She's absolutely qualified - and her lack of a track record is probably seen as a plus. I want a court with justices with varying and diverse backgrounds. Having nine Harvard and Yale grads who clerked for a SC justice then served the last 10 years on a court of appeals? How about some justices who actually worked with people on the other side of the bench?
