Somewhere, Heaven or Hell, Niccolo Machiavelli is waving a copy of The Prince and hollering in Italian: Trump, you magnificent bastardo, you read my book!

President Trump said over the Weekend he was offered 2 Billion dollars to do a deal Dubai, and he turned it down.

You know, Obama would not do that.

Obama would never get the offer!

Trump only to be notified of financial profit-and-loss statements, but no other corporate reporting.

Creating Chief Compliance Counsel to ensure compliance with these distancing efforts.

Trump org to distance itself from his office as president to include NO reference to him being president.

He just legitimized the false narrative of Russian hacking. It’s not hacking, it’s their own durn emails, their words. What a disaster. Omg. He has just come up to the left line and launched. Then he went into the leftist tactic of look what I am doing for veterans, people with two left feet with only two toes each.
I couldn’t listen any more. No substantive thoughts, just empty rhetoric.”

Who are you referring to???!!!!???

What other billionaire would take this hit to serve us?

Every other freaking president GOT MILLIONS off our asses for the job. Shelled out his “office” for those post -prez speeches.

“Very disappointed Trump caved to the pretentious grand-standing of Uhbama with the podium - ‘Office of the President-Elect’.”

Haven’t all PEs done that? It’s the official title between certification and inauguration. He has to be identified in some way. I think it was Obama’s pretentious logo that set us off.

Their fake news meme is being squashed with real news.

His attorney’s explanation is very clear and impressive.

He will resume ownership after his term(s) as president.

Impossible to sell the org without destroying it, so it will survive his presidency, and by law, he has that right.

It brings to mind an old phrase from the Revolution. His fortune and his sacred honor have taken serious hits. It’s the life part that has me worried.

Talk to anyone who has ever traveled to Russia. They will tell you to pretty much be prepared to be spied on during the entire duration of your stay.

People who went to the Sochi Olympics had very interesting tales.

“David Shulkin MD is the current Under Secretary of Health for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. He was nominated by President Obama “

On its face, this seems like a terrible appointment by Trump. The position is too important to turn it over to an incumbent.

I am so humbled by the sacrifice this family is making for our country. Cancellation of 30 deals that you know were good ones must sting.
