We’d love to hear examples that do not involve just because he got rid of bad regulations.


Not my fault you haven't been paying attention when I have.

I have been. Trump has rescinded bad regulations. A good thing unless you sell paper to the feds.

I think there are job positions for paid lackeys in the Trump administration.

What a week for Trump! 2 trade deals moving forward. Brexit moving forward. Record employment!

Meanwhile the Democrats try to impeach over a phone call.

Can't wait for swing-state Congressmen to say to their voters, "Yes, booming economy and record employment. But see, we do not like him so we voted to impeach and invented the charge of a phone call."

If there are...

Would that stray from the normal hiring practices of political officials?

Houston's mayor has a $95,000 a year intern with undefined responsibilities. Just about every politician with a staff hires people that will carry out their plans. A lot of those are "Yes" folks who won't stand up to their boss.

$95000 intern? Sounds like how union locals had "receptionists" who were connected to connected men.

Government is a swamp no matter where you go.

Now that the NY judge has thrown
out the case against Manafort, there
is nothing stopping Trump from
pardoning him from fed prison.
Libbies will go insane.. lol

They have been insane. But a few will need to be taken to the Yellow Room.

This is scary, two months after Congress goes back
to work in January, Nancy Pelosi will turn 80 years
old. Ever spend much time around 80 year olds? You
don't want them driving, you don't want them making
decisions that involve anything major, they're tired
a lot and take a lot of naps. They get confused easily.
