President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Quick read.

 

Budget director Mulvaney this am on Republican health care bill: "Insurance is not the end goal here." Couldn't have put it better myself.

 

Yeah and he wasn't prosecuted for it either. I guess it's OK to lie to Congress depending on who you are.

 

It takes a special level of assholery to complain about paying taxes that help subsidize health care for the impoverished and then go out and knowingly purchase an empty book.

 

Even you're not this dumb to believe a #FakeNews story like this.

“[W]e zealously protect Mr. Trump’s valuable name, brand and trademarks,” Garten said at the time. “Unfortunately, as the brand has grown in popularity around the world, there are more and more people who have tried to trade off his name.”

That’s the factor at play with the Chinese trademark for Trump Escorts. As The Post’s China bureau chief, Simon Denyer, noted in his analysis of the trademark applications, “Chinese trademark law grants priority to whoever files an application first, so lawyers often advise clients with wide-ranging business interests to file broad, defensive trademark applications against a range of products to prevent other people jumping in – a practice known as ‘trademark squatting,’ common in China.”

 

Trump and friends must have been very focused on the issues in those wiretapped conversations because apparently there was nothing to use against him.

 

Oh, it had to be something like this, but it's still funny to think of some Chinese hustler coming up with this idea. Be funny if he'd called it Bill Clinton Escorts, too.

 

I did neither of those things. Whom might you be talking about?

 

The majority of the people who made that book an Amazon bestseller. Didn't mean you specifically.

 

That clip looks like they used a pirated copy of PageMaker on a 286 computer from 1992.
