Current Affairs Donald Trump POS: Judgement cometh and that right soon

Any other federal employee would be sacked for this.

Wonder how many of his mates Trump is tipping off the night before as well? Would be trading on insider information but what is the likelihood would be prosecuted under this admin - or pardoned anyway?

Pardoned, if a prosecution actually occurred.

but, unfortunately, the President is not a federal employee.

Can’t wait for all those that wailed at the Solyandra subsidies to explain how these subsidies are fine

(CNN)Hurricane Maria may have killed more than 4,600 Americans in Puerto Rico, according to a recent academic report, but Americans paid a lot less attention to the storm compared to storms of similar or even lesser magnitude.

In the aftermath of Maria, a number of polls were taken to judge just how closely Americans were paying attention to the devastation and recovery efforts. After the storm hit in late September, a study by non-gold standard pollster YouGov found that only 27% were following news about the effects of Hurricane Maria very closely. To put that in some perspective, the same poll found that 43% and 39% of Americans respectively were very closely following news about the less deadly Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Harvey respectively. Both Harvey and Irma hit hardest in the continental US.
...
The lack of attention paid to Maria is unusual for a major hurricane (category 3 or higher at its peak) that harmed Americans. Take a look at these polls or average of polls that were taken by the gold standard Kaiser Family Foundation or Pew Research Center in the aftermath of previous powerful hurricanes. In every instance, more Americans were paying very close attention than they were to news about Maria.

They were no friends of the UK. Trump, like him or not, was unequivocal about his support to the UK........

Good chunk of Americans have no idea that Puerto Ricans are Americans. On TV they see large numbers of POC speaking Spanish or English with an accent and Puerto Ricans are suddenly them, not us.

Especially in Montana.

Glad the President's phone is secure.

Cell phone surveillance devices were detected near the White House and other sensitive locations in the Washington, DC, area last year, a government study found.

The spying technology, called International Mobile Subscriber Identity devices and known alternatively as Stingrays or IMSI catchers, was discovered as part of a review by the Department of Homeland Security conducted last year and detailed in a letter the agency sent to Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Oregon, last month.
While the presence of the technology in the nation's capital had been previously reported, its presence near the White House first emerged in the May letter after elected officials pressed DHS for more information amid concerns about the potential national security threat posed by the devices and vulnerabilities in the nation's telecommunications network.

And having no voting representatives in Congress or in the electoral college compounds that problem.

Even with representatives it can be difficult to get long term support.

The very worst of patriotism, which has always been a tool of the powerful, the most sickening thing is it will be on a deep rooted subconscious level

And some people claimed Trump wasn’t autocratic!

Now floating the idea that he could pardon himself to judge pushback, hope even Republicans make it clear that even a President isn’t above the law.
