Donald Trump

ikiT

law, order and justice are being restored

Justice is PF debatable.

Jeff Sessions is not out for JUSTICE (perhaps just-ice), the "Trump Era" as he referred to it, is all about bringing back the war on drugs and rounding up illegals. That's not Justice, that's low hanging fruit back to Mexico or off to for-profit prisons.

Since they got nothing substantial done in first 100 days, they are going to make him a war time president (despite running on the exact opposite premise last year) to bolster approval ratings.

Go Beavers

Another thing with the Florida trips that I haven't seen get much mention, is that he's directly profiting from expenses to house and feed all the staff he brings along to his resort. What kind of bullshit is that? That wouldn't even fly with your local mayor. And then in the interview he's plugging the beautiful cake he's stuffing his face with when bombing Iraq. Err......I mean Syria.

Interesting take on all of the travel by the Chicago Tribune:

Fake news or?

Some of it is incredibly biased.

"In December, the group's president, Tom Fitton, said Obama had engaged in "notorious abuse of presidential travel perks" and called on Trump to overhaul presidential travel.

But with seven Mar-a-Lago visits in less than three months, is Trump guilty of the same thing? Fitton says he doesn't think so but added, "It's not what we expected from him, given his criticism of Obama.""

That's flat out ridiculous.


A point that is ignored by people who want to downplay this issue is the taxpayer costs that are saved by local municipalities that aren't incurred when the POTUS (and his family) lives and works at the White House.
Melania and Baron are costing taxpayers, both federally and locally, millions by living in New York, millions that wouldn't be spent if they lived in the White House where they belong.
The costs to travel to Florida nearly every weekend are absolutely above and beyond what is reasonable, AND NONE OF THAT EVEN TOUCHES THE FACT THAT HE IS GETTING TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN SELF-ENRICHING ADVERTISEMENT FOR HIS BRAND.

It is unprecedented and disgusting.

Hey, I don't disagree with you, all frivolous spending on the taxpayer dime is disgusting. But, the fact that news agencies have been spouting out bogus numbers does not help their credibility much either...especially in a time where the term "fake news" is being thrown out all over the place. There are especially plenty around the AMT that are so blinded by their hate for Trump that they will not question whether or not their favorite news sources are reporting correct information or irresponsibly throwing out inaccurate information because they have not done due fact checking. And those are the same posters that jump on others for sourcing inaccurate information. At least this Chicago Tribune article attempts at a little dissemination, unlike CNN and others that spouted out inaccurate numbers.

But the fact still remains that all throughout the campaign he kept mentioning how much he would work in WH never have any time to golf like Obama did in 8 yrs ...Hypocrite is an understatement to say the least !

To be clear.....all U.S. military munitions are given a designation (name). Here is the actual name of the munitions dropped in Afghanistan

GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb, nicknamed MOAB

Great win in Kansas last night for Ron Estes, easily winning the Congressional race against the Dems, who spent heavily & predicted victory!
Economic confidence is soaring as we unleash the power of private sector job creation and stand up for the American Workers. #AmericaFirst One by one we are keeping our promises - on the border, on energy, on jobs, on regulations. Big changes are happening!
Jobs are returning, illegal immigration is plummeting, law, order and justice are being restored. We are truly making America great again!

There is only one true fact in that first sentence.

Trump is dialing back his economic promises. Bigly

Wonder if his resort is charging himself and staff all of the resort and lodging fees that a guest would normally rack up at the taxpayers expense. Would be some interesting data. Not defending the dude, but it would be nice to see some expense reports for all presidents, current and past.

If I fill this out, will I get a nifty score on the bias-o-meter? What was your bias check?

Here's a great way to get yourself on Trump's email list and get solicited for funds since he's already registered for 2020.

You're claiming CNN is reporting inaccurate numbers based on one article that is clearly biased and really shows no actual numbers that show what each trip to Florida costs? Seriously? Trump has vacationed more in 3 months than Obama did in 4 years. Plus the cost of his wife and kid living in New York. He's costing the taxpayers way more than Obama ever could have.

So Trump is soliciting feedback to re-invent government, where have we heard that before? Anyway, the White House Travel Office is not listed as one needing reform. I suggest that you just use the "White House" instead and then type in reform of the Travel Office and maybe suggesting eliminating so many golf trips to Trump properties. It might earn you an IRS audit but hey, you only live once.
