Trump is genuinely an idiot running the country. Like an extremely low IQ individual. Bush was dumb in his ways but this is another level. Fascinating to watch him with even less guard rails

The biggest grift is the fact the GOP explodes the deficit every time they gain control of congress and the Whitehouse. They want $4.5T worth of tax cuts for the wealthy. Guess who pays for that? the

You have to be totally blind to not see what’s going on and what Trump is trying to do here.

What's he trying to do?  It's his last term and he's 80 years old.  He has absolutely nothing to gain except a legacy as the exposer of massive government corruption. 

 

The fact that you guys are siding with the incompetent, wasteful, corrupt government officials who have been cheating the American people is just baffling. 

 

Aren't you at least a little curious as to how the government civil "servants" became filthy rich or is that concern only reserved for people who get rich in the private sector?

This is actually hilarious, except it's disrespectful to the body that has to consider it: 

 

A bill has been introduced in Congress to authorize the purchase of Greenland and to rename it "Red, White and Blueland."

Wonder if L stands for little.

Imagine hypothetically you were heavily invested in a company and for whatever reason this stock continues to make you pay it multiple times a year instead of paying you dividends. Instead of reporting earnings, this stock posts annual deficits and the deficit gets bigger every year. 

 

So some other share holders finally get fed up and ask for a change of CEO. The CEO's change a few times every couple years but it's the same result until finally you get a CEO who's radical and rough around the edges.  He promises to get rid of waste and fraud that's hemorrhaging the company. 

 

Within the company, the auditing team find billions of dollars of waste just from one department.  The CEO also starts negotiating with competitors and collaborative companies that have not been playing it fair when it came to their previous deals.  

 

The CEO gives the auditing team of professionals full access to various departments but all of a sudden some judges with ties to the previous leaderships tries to halt the investigations. 

 

As a shareholder who pays 30-40% of your annual earnings to this company, wouldn't you be at least a little curious to see who's been cheating you and where your money's been going? Shouldn't the natural response be to cheer on these people who are finally trying to expose the corruption instead of the people who are trying to block the investigation? 

 

I know I'm biased, but even if Joe Biden were to do it 4 years ago, I'd be at least a little bit curious where all the fraud and corruption was happening in the government. If anything, I'd be disappointed in my party for missing their chance to uncover this mess.  

 

Simply put.  The people voted for Trump to drain the swamp.  Many of you were critical of Trump for not doing just that.  And a lot of you were accusing republicans of corruption and fraud.  Except corruption was on both sides of the fence. Now is our chance. Either your for exposing corruption or you're not.  Take the red pill and open your eyes to reality. 

Well, the board of directors hires and fires officers, including the CEO. Individual stockholders have no say in who is an officer unless on the board. Stockholders elect board member >>> and board members hire officers. 

 

So, your hypothetical really makes no sense.

Also, the judge who you say has ties to the previous leadership was appointed by Obama in 2011 and has been a federal judge for nearly 15 years.

I didn't say the share holders voted the CEO in but that's not the point. Arguing unimportant details while ignoring the main point... goodness. 

 

Love you anyway, chester :)

And Obama wasn't part of the team controlling Joe Biden as president, right?

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered government agencies to restore public access to health-related webpages and datasets that they removed to comply with an executive order by President Donald Trump.

 

U.S. District Judge John Bates in Washington agreed to issue a temporary restraining order requested by the Doctors for America advocacy group. The judge instructed the government to restore access to several webpages and datasets that the group identified as missing from websites and to identify others that also were taken down “without adequate notice or reasoned explanation.”

I'm sure they'll comply with this one right away. Definitely not going to refuse to follow law again.

No evidence has been produced of any of this. You are talking about imagined officials you cannot name, cheating that has not been described in the slightest, under the assumption that every agency or institution of government that has existed under Trump, Reagan, and everywhere else is so blatantly corrupt it needs to be abolished overnight. 

 

Because one guy tweets that it is corrupt--someone who bought his way into politics and is blatant about using his wealth to punish people that do not agree with him.
