The Psychic Observer 194 Posted January 5 A new report by Democrats on the House Oversight committee documents more than $7.8 million in payments from at least 20 foreign governments — including China, Saudi Arabia and Qatar — to businesses owned by then-President Trump during two years of his presidential term. It is illegal for presidents to accept any money from foreign governments without congressional approval per Article I of the U.S. Constitution, which states that "no person holding any office ... shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state." Corruption. Thy name is Trump. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill E. 666 Posted January 5 Gosh maybe they can run phony impeachments on Trump/China and Trump/Saudi collusion if he wins again. That would be something new.

I think the perversion of our systems is a recipe for disaster eventually as each side is either trying to out-do the other, or sacrifices good sense to pursue power. We should collectively abhor it....but people have lost their sense of citizenship, they instead suckle at the teat of a political party. Too many have abandoned reason and decency to instead defend powerful people.....its a despicable place we find ourselves 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But instead they are using that to force Kushner to provide evidence against Trump in the flimsy case down in Georgia. Kushner is a corrupt POS, and if he knew anything which tied Trump to that Trump would have problems. But he doesn't, so they are trying to criminalize Trump legal maneuvers to win an election.

No, but anytime you concentrate and centralize power it is disastrous. We are on the brink of falling into complete authoritarian rule, and it is not Trump pushing us there.

So like the government telling you what jobs to do? Confiscating your money? Not letting you own property? Those my friends are the hallmarks of "complete authoritarian rule" as you so laughably claim. And weird that this "complete authoritarian rule" let's folks keep their firearms.

seafoam1 1,879 Posted January 5 I don't get what the liberals keep saying about Trump being Hitler. He acted as a no nonsense president who sent out mean tweets. I can only wish Hitler was like Trump. All Trump did to the pvssy democrats was say 'fock you to you radical liberals and your garbage agendas" and the news reporters bullshlt and since then faced allegations that no one could prove. Most vetted president of all time. Put him back in office and enjoy the results and shut up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
