BTW, what do "Democratic Socialists" believe in?

Voting themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.


That more aptly describes Trump, his family, and his appointees.


How is that?


Oh, special deals on condos, isolation phone booths, promotion and hotel
rentals at Trump hotel in DC, promotion of Mar-a-Lago, overseas
deals...don't you read the news?


I am not a big fan of corporate welfare. I will say everyone in these
targeted businesses get them tho and they always pass congress with
wide bipartisan support. I do think Trump should be comping the
government the use of his resorts when he is visiting. He certainly
should not be recovering more than the actual cost.
I said from day one that hotel in DC was troubling. The beef I have
always agreed with was the conflicts of interest.
It is the problem you have when you put a person with businesses into
the White House but it is not a new problem. George Washington had
serious conflicts of interest. It is quite possible that Washington
walked away from the presidency because his business had advanced to
the point that these conflicts may have become troubling to his
critics.
