Saw a piece on PBS the other night on this. About the only group still planning an event there is the local GOP. Lady being interviewed was complaining that charities shouldn't be acting political. Um, lady, they are rightfully disgusted by the idiot in chief equating righteous protesters to nazis. That's common decency, not politics.

Money talks, and if charities are pulling out Trump's MAL resort, it's probably because they are acquiescing to their donors.

Trump's unprecedented ethics violations so common they're becoming part of the scenery.

When one has no moral center, what are ethics? Trump is merely an extension of the people who voted for him, people with no moral center or ethics.

Trump: I pass a lot of bills. Also, the Democrats won’t let me pass bills.

Um...

Former GOP Sen. John Danforth warned Republicans that President Donald Trump has "corrupted" their party and that they must break with him in order to save it.
