    I posted this on another thread. Trump has appointed more lobbyists to cabinet positions in three years than Obama and Bush did in eight years. The absolute antithesis of “draining the swamp”.

    Exactly.

    And somehow Trumptards keep repeating the 'drain the swamp' mantra despite that fact and that 'I Hire Only The Best People' Drumpf keeps firing his own appointees.

    It's like doing a shit on the floor, smearing it in, and then claiming you're here to clean-up the shit.

    He is still trying to find someone that really, really worships him. Like I said early on in this thread, he is driven entirely by his ego. Those are impressive numbers though!

    Jim Acosta loves getting under the skin of the orange buffoon...


    The exchange came in New Delhi, India, after Acosta asked if Trump would pledge to reject any foreign interference in the upcoming presidential campaign

    ORANGE BUFFOON
    "First of all, I want no help from any country, and I haven't been given help from any country," Trump replied. "And if you see what CNN, your wonderful network, said, I guess they apologized in a way for - didn't they apologize for the fact that they said certain things that weren't true? Tell me, what was their apology yesterday? What did they say?"

    ACOSTA
    "Mr. President, I think our record on delivering the truth is a lot better than yours sometimes," Acosta responded without answering the president's question.

    ORANGE BUFFOON
    "Let me tell you about your record, your record is so bad you ought to be ashamed of yourself," Trump shot back. "You have the worst record in the history of broadcasting."

    ACOSTA
    "I'm not ashamed of anything and our organization is not ashamed,".

    That was a pretty impressive response. I wonder though how the Trumpster will get revenge. You know darn well he will!

    I sure wish Ted Lieu would run for president. He could run rings around Trump and the incredible dorks the orange one has picked.

    Plus several million retarded old twats like repeater who are glued to Faux News and Breitbart.

    Thinking of it, you would think the drug companies would be desperate for him to take it more seriously as the coffin dodger market is a critical part of their business and this could bump a significant portion of them off.

    Trump is thanking his lucky stars.


    The death of the longest running bull market was because of the panic over the corona virus and not on the basis of his economic policies which were providing needed sustaining tailwinds.

    Pompeo Won't Say Whether Coronavirus Is a Hoax



    Dems joust with Pompeo at hearing, the 1st since impeachment
    AP NEWS


    By ERIC TUCKER
    today

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Mike Pompeo defended the Trump administration’s response to the spreading coronavirus but also faced contentious questions Friday from Democrats about the basis for an airstrike that killed Iran’s most powerful general and whether the attack had put American security at risk.

    Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs Committee repeatedly expressed frustration that the panel was afforded only two hours to question Pompeo, who until Friday had gone months without testifying publicly on Capitol Hill. He balked last fall at complying with a subpoena tied to the House impeachment inquiry into the administration’s interactions with Ukraine.

    (There are recorded many questions, however, I haven't found the one of Ted Lieu as shown in the above video. Perhaps somebody with better English proficiency can find it?)

    One of the important rules for government ... never waste a good crisis.

    Trump will spin it.

    Australian's Prime Minster did (miss it) with the country's catastrophic Bush (Forrest) Fires by holidaying in Hawaii during a crucial week just after Christmas and still paying the price.
