"This is American corruption on the scale of a post-Soviet republic or a postcolonial African dictatorship"
Frum:
In his first term, he made improper millions. In his second term, he is reaching for billions: a $2 billion investment by a United Arab Emirates state-owned enterprise in the Binance crypto exchange using the Trump family’s stablecoin asset.
An unknown number of billions placed by Qatar in a Trump-family real-estate development in that emirate, topped by the gift of a 747 luxury jet for the president’s personal use in office and afterward.
Government-approved support for a Trump golf course in Vietnam while its leaders were negotiating with the United States for relief from Trump tariffs.
Last week, Trump hosted more than 200 purchasers of his meme coin, many of them apparently foreign nationals, for a private dinner, with no disclosure of the names of those who had paid into his pocket for access to the president’s time and favor.

No Mayor Petes, Sam Brittons, Rachel Levines or Karine Jean-Pieres in this cabinet/administration.
you just don't like the gays much do you, sallster?
as noname would cite a buch of jews as the problem, you cite a bunch of gays as the problem.
Not cool, tex.
I love gays. I consider Elton John one of my favorite singers. I DO NOT like DEI hires. Mayor Pete's biggest accomplishment as mayor of South Bend was lighting up the underneaths of bridges.
Why would you ask if I don't like gays when I mentioned Mayor Pete? I don't think he was qualified. You Libs always want to go to race or to gayness or to something else.

just a coincidence that you picked three gays as your problems.

Just a coincidence. Got it.
I knew Mayor Pete was gay. The others I have no clue but think Karine might be gay also. I really could give a flying F if they are gay. I want qualified people. PERIOD.

Here is a where we see that this thread has no real value, except a dumping ground for posts from trolls, bots, Russians, and complete idiots.
Anyone with any critical thinking skills at all, with any self-awareness, would look at that list and say, "Yeah, this isn't good. There should be real discourse about this."
But they aren't interested or capable, or they are paid to stoke anger and division.

I use the thread as a dumping ground for my anger about politics. to keep it out of my regular life. Probably others do the same thing.

no you don't.
You never complain about trujmp's cabinet, which is by far the most unqualified cabinet we've ever seen.
you just want to complain about Democrats you see as DEI hires.
Which means you look first to see if they are black, or gay or whatnot. THen you complain about that.
If you cared about qualifications, you could not be a Republican. Virtually none of them is qualified to be in the cabinet.
Prosecutors in the UK confirm they have authorised 21 charges against Andrew and Tristan Tate, including rape, actual bodily harm and human trafficking.

Trump can’t tell if Putin the murderer is murdering people, if Putin the liar is lying, or if Putin the warmonger really wants to make peace. Trump is an imbecile. Trump is a Russian asset.

It's tragic when we aren't quite sure if Russia has Trump compromised, if he is a complicit asset, or if he is simply a useful idiot.
I’m old enough to remember Trumpers saying that it was a left wing lie when Trump was accused of having Rudy sell pardons for one million dollars during Trump 1.0.
Now it’s all done out in the open. And Republicans say it can’t be corruption if Trump does it openly.
“Trump Pardoned Tax Cheat After Mother Attended $1 Million Dinner Paul Walczak's pardon application cited his mother's support for the president, including raising millions of dollars and a connection to a plot to publicize a Biden family diary.”

I don’t care…
You’ve made it clear that you support Trump using his political power to enrich himself as much as possible and don’t believe that the government has any duty to treat people fairly or to improve the lives of its citizens.

The current response to blatant corruption is "I don't care". Repeated by several Trump supporters on this thread.
