Sure, she could Jared’s banking for him?

If you feel so bad, you need to blame the president for this.

The whole guv official calling a biz for such favors thing makes me queasy.

I’m not on board with the concept either. The government should not be doing anything to favor specific individuals just because they can be used to push an agenda.

[9YearLurker]

Exactly.

I doubt President Trump would think releasing cons from prison was a big priority if not the liberals in his family.

Lots of negative waves on this thread, Moriarity

What would you say if a relative of the president in the Obama administration had done something similiar telling the business to hire someone for the purposes of pushing an agenda? Would you have been OK with that?

the black lady that Kim Kardashian championed

I believe this is the same lady you are referencing....

Not really. Just consistency in principles.

I have tried to help cons get jobs, apartments, cars, etc. and it always works out the same.

They wind up right back in prison for the same thing that sent them there in the first place.

Drugs, booze, lazy, stupid,...the list is endless. They just can’t function in society.

"When the election was going, no one was looking forward to Trump being in there," Powell said. "People thought the Democrats were going to change the laws and get them out of prison, but then it was the Republicans and Trump who changed the laws."

Because she lives in Daphne, AL. She wants to live where her family is, and she asked him to give her a job recommendation at Walmart. So he did. She will now have to prove herself in the workplace.

Honestly, I see nothing wrong with helping others.

Our prison population needs to be reintegrated into society. It is best done with people willing to share, explicit or implicit, responsibility for the actions of such persons.

Welfare should be handled from person to person, too.

Drugs, booze, lazy, stupid,...the list is endless. They just can’t function in society.

Such as former drug abuser Mike Lindell?

[ScottinVA]

I’m not sure why the negativity here... sometimes these efforts work out. The woman is now in a productive job... how about we see first how she does before we assume she’ll fail?

[Beagle8U]

I don’t know the man.

[sport]

Yep!

[dynoman]

Why such hate?

[Beagle8U]

I have tried to help them. They screw up again every time.
