And yet, Governor Blackface, and his trusty woman beating sidekick are still in office.

Because he's a hack that not even the turtle could force through confirmation.

I will assist:


President Trump’s picks for the Federal Reserve Board have a women problem.

Herman Cain (https://news.yahoo.com/trump-faces-republican-pushback-over-possible-nomination-of-herman-cain-for-fed-215806653.html), the former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, withdrew himself from consideration for a seat on the Federal Reserve’s board of directors Monday, as past allegations of sexual harassment by multiple women led to opposition among Senate Republicans.


President Trump announced Cain’s decision in a tweet.

Trump sure can pick 'em.

He only picks people who;

a) Kiss his ass
b) Showered him with money

America elected a dummy and a crook, when will that reality finally sink in? Apologies for his stupidity are simply the words of the snowflakes who see in his bluster a messiah. Tribalism allows con-artists a podium.

"It is a conclusion that even Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., has appeared to confirm, saying in 2008—after the Trump Organization was prospering again—that “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets.”"

"What is patriotism? Let us begin with what patriotism is not. It is not patriotic to dodge the draft and to mock war heroes and their families. It is not patriotic to discriminate against active-duty members of the armed forces in one's companies, or to campaign to keep disabled veterans away from one's property. It is not patriotic to compare one's search for sexual partners in New York with the military service in Vietnam that one has dodged. It is not patriotic to avoid paying taxes, especially when American working families do pay. It is not patriotic to ask those working, taxpaying American families to finance one's own presidential campaign, and then to spend their contributions in one's own companies. It is not patriotic to admire foreign dictators. It is not patriotic to cultivate a relationship with Muammar Gaddafi; or to say that Bashar al-Assad and Vladimir Putin are superior leaders. It is not patriotic to call upon Russia to intervene in an American presidential election. It is not patriotic to cite Russian propaganda at rallies."

Do you take all allowable deductions on your taxes? Do you deduct the standard amount per dependent (as applicable) to reduce your tax liability? It's legal, based on the tax code.

Do you not think that Trumps personal tax returns, as well as all his corporate tax returns have been reviewed periodically? If he had done something illegal, would he not have been held up to a microscope?

Those who believe that he is some sort of criminal mastermind that he's soooo good at underhanded stuff that he hasn't been caught 'yet', and then turn around and call him stupid, a baffoon, and mentally unbalanced, pick a direction, please. You all could make the average person's head spin with your meandering.....

I suspect he is a total hypocrite. Takes all tax breaks and does not give the Treasury and extra check- to be fair.

The same people who deride those who take advantage of every tax law they can, screech about their SALT being capped at $10k. Numbers don't lie... the top 20% of taxpayers, pay 84% of taxes for programs they will likely never use. The 'fair share' BS only applies to other people..... *sarcasm alert*
