I never want to hear "party of fiscal responsibility" from a Republican again. It's the party of "fuck your causes, funnel all the money to my causes, my friends, and my donors."
And NEVER AGAIN let them try to pretend that they give a shit about corruption
Or the damn deficit
He systematically skims off the top of every single thing he touches. It has ALWAYS been his M.O.
Why do you think he has worked so hard to block audits of his and his family, and their businesses tax returns?
He's doing it at scale.
I've been thinking about this a lot - IRS "can't audit" those returns. However, what's to stop a committee or the following president (should we ever have a new one ever again, sigh) from creating a separate commission or entity with the sole purpose of doing so for the sake of justice, that is NOT the IRS.
Let alone the illegality of it, but I'd think that stupid subterfuge could be sidestepped. Thoughts?
It could happen, but let's be real if Congress can't even remove him from office I doubt they will audit his returns
It is always a con, a grift, a scam, fraud, or blatant corruption from the GOP and the daughterfucker in chief.
Well, I'm shocked! This never happened before!
In all seriousness, I'm more surprised they still treat this stuff as 'news,' because everyone knows he's a corrupt fuck. Business as usual is not news.
