My position is simple, and has been since day one. trump ran for POTUS for one reason...self promotion, and the hope of increasing the value of his brand. He never wanted to, nor expected to win. Everything trump does now, is aimed at increasing the revenue stream of other people's money into his pocket.
He pocketed $50million from his inauguration funds...all within the legal limits of such. His sleazy hotels are now charging more than before the election, often renting rooms to foreign dignitaries looking for something in return.
I told Cosmic back in January to watch for Paul Manafort when the truth comes out. That is finally coming to fruition.
Forget the fact that trump is an embarrassment. Forget that he's not qualified to occupy the White House. Forget the fact that he is clinically troubled, and is ultimately a danger to national security.
He's a walking, talking conflict of interest, and the entire Republican party is in consort to perpetrate this hoax.
Manafort's upcoming indictment i will assure you isn't for "Russian collusion"-the basis for the special counsel
Yes you told me about Manafort and I told your his foreign agent problems are with Ukraine ( Party of regions) and NOT the Russians.
Consider the fact Trump has been hobbled by Deep State leaks, a bogus FBI investigation and a Republican party that protects its own establishment from an outsider like Trump.
Consider the BS charges of "trump is a racist" when he never was shown to be in business -equal opportunity hiring and advancement of women too.
Consider Shumer is already lying about tax reform being a sop to the rich ( and fair reading shows its not)
Consider fake news and how it distorts everything towards anti-Trumpisnm
( i seriously doubt if you are able to do so - i saw it continuously during the campaign by WAPO and NYTime and CNN) .
Finally consider the benefits of economic nationalism if we can renegotiate NAFTA
et all while lowering the corporate rate to help keep business here.
For a dumb loud mouthed New Yorker -completely outside the MS of politics -
to come up with such ideas, and be hobbled by BS from the Dems and Deep State- like improving Russian relations in order to reduce Cold War spending.. that's an impressive menu
Trump has some really good ideas if the Republicans wern't such a worthless bunch of SwampCritters.
The goal is GDP growth. Obama did a good job of recovering low paying jobs.
Now with tax reform,and better international trade and de-regulation the table is set for real GDP-
building on that job growth
Can he do it? It depends on how much obsrtuctionism is thrown up.
for the benefit of the USA I hope he's successful
