Drumpf Thinks He's God....or Nixon...

[vorlon13]

Nixon kicked off the EPA and banned the use (by us) of poison gas.

He had his (inexplicable) screaming liberal moments, LOL!

He also HATED the moon landings that occurred during his term as he felt they glorified President Kennedy

Unfortunately, he's right. The law is on his side. And it's unlikely to change with him in charge.

But, for all that, give the man his due. If not for the Watergate cover-up and the stubborn refusal to simply cut our losses in Vietnam, he would be celebrated today as one of our better modern presidents. Unlike some people I could name, he actually understood domestic and foreign policy, had legislative experience, and had eight years' experience as Vice President prior to winning the Presidency. He signed into law a number of reasonably progressive pieces of legislation while President, and made some bold moves on the world stage that decisively ushered in a new era.

That's what I meant with the line you quoted. He was a crook, but he certainly moved society forward in other departments. Today he wouldn't even be nominated to run for dog catcher. Much too bleeding heart liberal.

Trump on his businesses/conflict q's: "The law's totally on my side, the president can't have a conflict of interest."

He doesn't know what he's fucking talking about....which has been evident from the start but a lot of people simply don't care.

When he seemed to be ignorant of what I blind trust was, that seemed genuine.

But when it comes to this, I think he knows exactly what he is doing. He can pretend day and night that he doesn't understand how it's a conflict of interest but he knows that there is already a line outside of his door and he knows what those people want and the only thing left to do is negotiate a price. And when Trump calls himself a negotiator, this is what he has in mind. If he's not a real billionaire now, he will be in four years.

Now Trump does not want to hurt the Clintons?

Lets review fuckface's 5 years.

Paints our first black president as "other" and evil.

Scapegoats Hispanics and refugees

Calls captured Vets loosers

Claims he is going to stand up to the establisment, brags about not paying taxes, now says he doesn't have to worry about his own business dealings.

Claims he won't back of his fraud university, ends up settling.

Drain the swamp? He is the fucking swamp. I do take that asshole personally because as I have said before, I know bullies when I see them. I grew up with nothing but bullies on my street. I've also worked for asshole owners, not all, but enough in my work history to know a con when I see it. Manipulators whom will promise you the world and lie their asses off only to have the decent management quit because the owner is fucking greedy.

TRUMP IS THE VERY DEFINITION OF TREASON and has gone way beyond any level of mudslinging in our country's history. He is a piece of fucking shit.

He is a fucking coward because he cant even face the public and has to back peddle in private. FUCK YOU TRUMP.

If the worst thing that happens is him fleecing the American people for billions and billions of dollars, I'll consider us extremely fortunate. 

And it's true, he doesn't have to create a blind trust for his assets. He's not legally required to do so. Of course it's highly unethical, but that word may not even exist for at least the next four years. 

Trump: is it illegal to do X?
Advisor: No, but it is considered highly unethical
Trump: Fantastic! Then do it.
