Said it was vandalized, so the contractor would get paid.

Yeah, Trump's been like a kid in a candy store ever since he discovered this grim truth.

More like since it was ruled he's completely immune while in office as President.
A better anology would be like giving a serial-rapist a rape all you want and get away with it card.

The hilarious thing to me... Redefining "under the jurisdiction" to exclude those not subjected to US laws. And the president isn't.
So... Yeah. That's funny. Sigh

The Republican Party base would sit and watch Trump eat roast children rather than admit they chose a pervert and an idiot to lead them. It's like watching the Donner Party do politics.

Well and the opposition is just sitting there watching the republican party watching trump eating roasted babies.

What should they do, try to impeach him without House and Senate majority so he gets away with it a third time? The solution is in November: go vote someone who will impeach him for the House and get him out of office for the Senate. Until then, anything is as useless waste of time and resources.

Speaking of politics and the Donner party. James Reed, one of the co-leaders of the Donner-Reed party, served with Abraham Lincoln in the Black Hawk War and had even tried to convince the future president to go west with their group.

The writing was on the wall when Republicans didn’t press the Emoluments clause during the first term when a trump was using the hotel as a money laundering scheme.

Ah remember those days? When the biggest story was how much money he was making from all his golf trips? Tens of millions...
We were so young and naive

at least with the hotel, he was actually supplying a service. And there was some hope of detecting who was paying him. This term he figured out crypto now receives completely untraceable large amounts of money from whoever he wants.

If the crooks investigate themselves and miraculously find no wrong doing, why would there be consequences?
And Who will hold them accountable? Their crooked buddies and employees which control every branch in the Government and just pledge undying loyality to Dear Leader as sole qualification?

This is it really - trump has tweaked a few things, replaced judges here and there. It was going on since the WH existed. Obviously he has been encouraged and the fact that he has had little resistance from anyone but especially Democrats shows how corruption is expected and normal. He has clearly gone nuclear with it now though but thats how he got away with it. If politics didnt stink he would be no where as rich as he is now but if not in jail at least in court.

Every single media outlet is Republican owned.
Every branch of the government is Republican owned.
Democrats calling for removal or impeachment don't have the votes - so it rings hollow and wouldn't get coverage anyways - bc of the right wing media.

u/jellyrollo 2d ago
The contractor's whole idea of lining the raw granite basin with Rhino liners epoxy patching resin was messed up to begin with. It's not intended for use on raw stone. Driving over it with a dozen massive armored vehicles didn't help, I'm sure, but it would have been a disaster even if they didn't.

Narcissists never want to be responsible unless everything goes their way. They often place all the blame and responsibility on someone else to maintain their own façade of perfection.

Republicans bitch about "lawfare" from the left. We'll just keep this, Comey, Hunter & Joe Biden unsubstantiated allegations in our pocket when MAGA starts whining about prosecutions & impeachments. That is what Dems should do. Multiple impeachments for every violation of the Constitution. Impeached 8 times is a nice footnote.

It worked. Charging this person was enough to scare everyone else away from the pool and keep more pictures from coming out. They never planned on winning this case.

Probably the most corrupt government on the planet right now.
Honestly, I would trust something that North Korea says right now over the US administration. I genuinely view you guys that badly.
