Y’all remember that golden oldie Hoax? Was a 2 week leading story with The Crazy.
until this story emerged, I didn't even realize some state functions were hosted outdoors on the lawn ... all I could think of was some prancy whack-a-doodle in a Vera Wang $20K dress having to take a dump in the porta-poddy whilst getting stuck due to wearing heals on the way in ...
Yep. That's the truth.
And leave it to the Dems to raise hell about a brand new necessary WH ballroom paid for entirely by private donations.

Where you and most of us here seem to differ is that you believe we support everything Trump does 100% - most actually do not.

That is a waste of energy to us "supporters" because that is just how life works, get over it.
Most here do not agree with pardoning someone who does not truly deserve it ... and there are a few who Trump set free that he should not have.
Get over yourself ballgagger.
you guys always miss the point. No one is arguing that humans don't act in a certain way, and that given a chance people will do X Y and Z for financial gain. Thats why we have rules, laws and checks and balances. Trump is bypassing the checks and balances (cheered on by short sighted MAGAs).
Going through the proper channels would remove the spectre of impropriety. I think given the sheer amount of $$ in government contracts available to donors, this will end up costing the American taxpayer far more than the cost of the ballroom.
For example I do business with a supplier who has government contracts. If he takes a government contractor out to dinner, that contractor has to pay for his own meal. by doing that, even though it cost the taxpayer a $100 or whatever it costs, it removed the implication that the supplier might curry favor by paying for a meal.
Stop.. You're making a fool of yourself. If you want to have a serious conversation about this, then you need to bring in Biden and Obama to this conversation. Again both of these men left office with more money than they did when they came in, but in Trump's first term he left with less money.
But I get it.. You are like some of these Dem brainiacs who say when a Dem president is elected, tear down the ball room and spend taxpayer money to build something.
So you want to have a conversation about grifting, let's have it. By your own metric Joe Biden and his family should be locked up and the key thrown away. Hunter sat on a board in Ukraine for a company in which he had zero experience in the industry and the language. Hunter also flew in AF2 to China to secure a deal with his dad. The Bidens sold access to Joe, and Joe benefitted.
Currently donors have paid money to build a ballroom and they also have government contracts. I do not see how this is benefiting Donald Trump, but what I do see is that contracts were awarded to people who in turn gave money so we didn't have to pay for their contracts and a new ballroom. In your mind double dipping and paying for both would be wonderful, then the companies go belly up and not have to produce a single thing.
You suck at this. Have a good day. And may God have mercy on your poor little soul.
But but but but muhhhh Obbbbaaammmaaaaarrrr
Nice rebuttal. On par with your IQ level I see. Now refute what I'm saying or take this ish elsewhere.
weren't you the guy claiming the UAE "investment" in binance of $2B vis a vis WLF coins was an "investment in America". You've already shown you have no idea what you're talking about.
Point to someone defending Hunter Biden and his antics. Point to someone claiming the Ukraine Gas company wasn't trying to curry favor.
You got the dumb response your dumb comment deserved.

I'm not pointing to you defending it, but what I'm saying is you're losing your mind over people getting contracts and in turn giving contributions to build a ballroom, but nary a word about Biden, Inc's grift. See you claim that Trump is grifting but what's he getting in return, a ballroom that future Presidents can use and at no cost to the taxpayer, and we don't have to continue to hold events outside or rent out a venue. He's terrible at this if that's the case where Hunter was bringing in illegal money from foreign countries and giving to his dad.
But if you think I'm so dumb, I'll respond to your comments in kinds.
And no I don't think I was that guy you're referring to.
You talk about cults. We mention Chicago Jesus or Delaware... uh... ya know... You deflect and run away like the scared ignorant child you are.

And sorry, Chuck, the hacks...Comer and Gym Jordan...are not a credible source for squat. They've failed time and time again to prove ANY of their partisan accusations.
FFS, if you don't believe anything that came from the J6 committee, you can't then use the GOP oversight committee and expect us to believe it for anything.
Call me when the rubber meets the road and Comer files charges for it.
And again, you're wrong and using logical fallacy. I have ZERO issue with any Biden being charged and prosecuted for actual crimes. Just like with Hunter's trouble. Did I once try to say Hunter was innocent of any of that stuff? No. Move along.

No opportunity for graft here. I’m sure nothing is wrong here and it won’t cost the taxpayers any additional monies. As we know the faceless mega corps of the military industrial complex are so civic minded and giving with their funds. There’s no way they’d expect something for their contributions
What's the problem? Didn't the contracts exist long before the donations?
