Mar-A-Barfo
Okay, so Politico broke a story today about how Trump is shredding every last ounce of dignity from the Oval Office.
An audiotape has been released from last fall. Trump is promising people who give $200,000 to join Trump’s resort a front row seat to history.
“We’re doing a lot of interviews tomorrow — generals, dictators, we have everything. You may wanna come around. It’ll be fun. We’re really working tomorrow. We have meetings every 15, 20 minutes with different people that will form our government.”
And then there are the “special people.”
Turning to a longtime club member that night, he said: “We were just talking about who we [are] going to pick for the FCC, who [are] we going to pick for this, who we gonna accept — boy, can you give me some recommendations?”
The supportive crowd ate it up as the relaxed Trump, in his element, gave them a close-up view of how he was setting up the government. “You are the special people,” he told the crowd of about 100 members, who mingled around a sushi station served by a waiter wearing a camouflage “Make America Great Again” cap.
Yep, and middle class Trump supporters believed him when he said he was working for them. Well, boys, “the special people” are gonna eat you for dinner.
SMH…no one with any integrity or gonzas to stop this maniac…
1Step 1: Keep taxes low.
Step 2: With the money saved, plutocrats can easily afford to buy membership at Mar-a-lago.
Step 3: When attending a dinner at Mar-a-lago “special people” may then recommend themselves for a high ranking government position.
And that, Simba, is the circle of life in America.
2“the special people”
IMO, We the people need to get some meathooks ready, for the fascist Nuovo Il Duce and his oligarchical minions…

3WashPost had a story today about Uday and Qusay flying to Dubai to open a new Trump golf resort. Is anybody going to do anything about the gross level of open corruption and raking it in from public office here, or are we just going to shrug it off because IOKIYAR?
4You’ve heard Trump talk about “extreme vetting”?
This is “extreme kvetching”.
Oy.
5And while the Liar-in-Chief is jetting down to his fan club, we are footing the gargantuan bill for his security, as well as that of his spawn in Dubai.
6Rhea? Well… it’s a tiny bit more complicated and stinky than that. The Dubai project is part of a larger $6 billion project of housing and such. Imagine a high class golf comnunity here. Trump has no money in it. The investors are paying him to be the frontman and use his “brand”. Okay?
Now… what’s funny (?) is during the campaign when Trump shot his mouth off against Muslims, the investors got miffed and took down his promotional billboard outside the development.
BUT… now he is El Presidente and apparently all is forgiven. It’s also interesting to note that Trump’s Muslim ban did not include Dubai (Arab Emirates) or their wealthy neighbors Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
Getting the picture? Uh huh. I knew you would.
7Gosh, i remember when I was a kid in school learning American History and all about the various Administrations after the Civil War and on into the 20th Century that were rife with corruption and thinking that after WWII, with the threat of mass annihilation on the planet, politicians in the WH would be putting all their energy into seeing that such destruction would never happen. Got that? A kid thinking that preventing the destruction of the planet would be the perfect diversion from cooking the planet. And that we would never see anything akin to Tea Pot dome again. Wow. Growing up is not for sissies!
8But I heard that Hillary was just too close to Goldman Sachs to allow anyone with a conscience to vote for her.
9Here is some interesting stuff: During his eight years in office, Obama’s travel expenses averaged $12.1 million a YEAR. At this rate, Trump is on target to rack up $140 million a year, a staggering 1,157% more.
Drumpf’s first month has travel expenses over 11 million bucks.
Drumpf also stated that as long as he was in the WH his kids would not attempt any overseas marketing of his brand. Apparently Scotland, Dubai, China and Uruguay are in the United States.
One more thing- Drumpf campaigned that he would defeat ISIS in his first 30 days. Today is day 29. Maybe he meant the first 30 working days which could give him months and/or years of latitude for that promise.
As of today- Meters of Drumpf wall built to this day- 0
10Alan-you heard correctly, but if HRC was a close to GS as Drumpf is she would have had to in bed with them fully engaged in …..ahem …negotiations.
11Drumpf knows the difference between garbanzo beans and chick peas.
12epo: Here’s something you might enjoy. “List of Presidential Trips Made by Obama in 2009”. It’s on Wiki. Arranged by month, January has “None listed”.
13I still remember the stink Rs made about Bamz taking Michelle to NYC for their wedding anniversary!!!! Dubya and his 1,000 days of brush-claring and now Trump “The Monday thru Friday President”. God, how I hate those people. I really do.
epo: “Trump knows the difference…”. I doubt it.
14* wink *
JAKVirginia- I didn’t finish the joke because I thought some one’s mama might be upset. Drumpf knows he has never had a garbanzo bean on his face. As for the chick pea- time and those pesky Russkies will tell. 🙂
15epo: OH! That joke! Yeah… that was a good.one. Had me gigglin’ for days. Thanks.
16epo, I don’t get it. If you want to explain you know where to find me.
I think it was Friday a guest on NPR compared the Orange Whore to Erdogan in Turkey. He was very persuasive. Erdogan is profane, hates the press and wants absolute and complete power. Both seem to favor a theocracy.
Anyway, the argument has real merits.
17Sandridge, there must be gas stations conveniently located near dump tower. Or the White House. (those are the girders of a petrol station on which Cheeto Benito’s role model’s corpse was strung up).
