More Trump policies benefitting the 1/10 of 1%.

Another reason to make rules that presidents - cannot have conflict of interest.

I am just astonished that the president and vice president do not fall under the conflict of interest rules. Then again, we have never had a conman like Trump in office. I'm not saying we have all honest politicians but this one is at the top of the list. He knows the rules and knows how to break them. Right now, the pubs want to get their agenda pushed through and use their puppet Trump to do it so let him get away with many unethical things so they can accomplish their goals.

Certainly agree with you - Resist Trump

The number of conflicts and scandals in just a couple of months is stunning yet his followers still think he is going to help the middle class. I keep wondering what it will take for them to wake up.

The whole political system is a conflict of interest - These politicians are in it for the money

Do you think politicians want power just for the fun of it? Their votes for special interests/lobbyists after big donations (bribes) to the politician is a conflict of interest.

How naive to think the whole political system is not corrupt and Trump is the only corrupt person involved in wanting to get rich using the political system. Politicians have rigged the system in their favor in order to get rich.

I don't believe anybody said Trump is the - only corrupt person

It would be naive to think that he is the only one. He just brings corruption to a whole new level. The Trump supporters seem to be naive about that.

What is Trump's whole new level that you - are missing in millionaire politicians?

Just because Trump is hated and in the spotlight does not mean others in politics are not as corrupt or more corrupt.

They are in it for the money and they will get the money by hook or crook at the expense of the middle class.

No I'm not but you are missing Trump's - level of corruption

Do you think Trump isn't getting his money at the expense of the middle class. Seriously, Trump supporters need to research this guy.

What is Trump's level of corruption as opposed - to other politicians?

[ In Reply To ..]
Of course the middle class tax payers pay for every corrupt move every person in power makes.

Regarding levels of political corruption, it is kind of like saying someone is half pregnant. If you are corrupt you are corrupt and if given the opportunity you will grow your corruption.

He does it right out in the open and Trump supporters - don't see it.

I'll let you do your own research on Trump to find his level of corruption. It might make you have to break away from Breibert or Trump Tweets but there is a whole lot of stuff out there and not just leftist sites.

I do not follow Trump or Breitbert. I am asking - his accusers who post this

what is Trump's level of corruption as president as opposed to other politicians.

Plain and simple. No time to do research obviously his accusers have already done. Bored with crooked lying politicians pointing the finger at others to divert attention from their own corruption.

He is just blatant at it and - does not even try to hide it

[ In Reply To ..]
from the world. It is naive to think that he is going to be good for America - especially all of those poor souls who voted for him and believed his "promises" - the only people who are going to be better off already were rich!

Blatant? So you would rather have a creepy sneak - politician lie to your face?

[ In Reply To ..]
BTW blatant is in the eye of the mainstream news who reports alleged Trump corruption.

And when you think about it, mainstream news does NOT report on the corruption of the politicians.

You should probably watch mainstream - sometime

I see stories on there all the time about corruption with politicians. Apparently he has been sneaky to the supporters since they don't see what is right out there in the open about him.

Mainstream might open your world to what is really going on. I see more posts from the right on here that are direct quotes from Trump Tweets. That is who they use for news. He is keeping you folks from really knowing what is going on in the world.

When you refer to "mainstream media" - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
you're referring to anything that isn't alt-right slanted. The news has reported on politicians for everything as far back as I can remember. As for trump's corruption, the news is reporting what the FBI is investigating which Comey announced. That's called news. I watch the news and knew ALL about Hilary's investigation, the Clinton corruption, etc. Did you question the news then?

Yes I believe Hillary was corrupt but mainstream - media supported her.

[ In Reply To ..]
In spite of the mainstream media support she lost.

As far as news, it is WHAT they CHOOSE to report and how it is reported that sometimes people are misled. You take something out of context and run with it and some under-educated voters believe it. I am all for the big picture news and there is no news agency out there right now without bias.

Politics is ugly and corrupt. I do not spend a lot of time listening to lying politicians or crazy Comey after his Hillary episodes.

I get it. They're used to Obama's underhandedness (sm) - nm

give a great speech, smile a lot, and lie in their faces. They'll never catch on.

Uh, his actions are available for all to see - Don'e need to watch media

[ In Reply To ..]
to see his tweets and executive orders and travel bans and cabinet picks and, and ,and etc... He is a sneak also - he tricked a lot of people into voting for him - Joke's on them!

There is nothing "alleged" about Trump corruption - Burt the Cat

It is right out there for all to see.

There has been no other president - Resist Trump

who has had the worldwide business interests of Trump and refused to divest himself of those interests or put his holdings in a blind trust. Thus we have him making deals that will benefit him and his family financially with no one stopping it. We have had no other president whose family flies all over the globe conducting family business and presumable earning profits at the expense of the American taxpayer. We have never had so many billionaires either in the cabinet or close to the president who are profiting by his actions.

The recent hack of George Soros’ “charitable” giving revealed nothing new.

Most revealing in the interview was Soros’ comment that he felt no guilt about what he had done dur ...
