State Department Pimps Trump Private Enterprise

More proof that this administration is in it for the money. Unbelievable, at least it would be under any other administration. Nothing Trump does surprises anymore, sadly.

Next thing you know, the Grifter-in-Chief will be advertising timeshares on the H.U.D. website.

On Twitter, the article quickly became fodder for critics.

“As the WH plans deep cuts to hunger programs and foreign aid, so nice to see taxpayer money being used responsibly...to promote Mar-a-Lago,” wrote Representative Mark Takano, Democrat of California.

Senator Ron Wyden, Democrat of Oregon, said on Twitter: “Why are taxpayer $$ promoting the president’s private country club?” He later posted the article, saying: “Here’s the full post in its kleptocratic glory.”
Please keep it up.

Being that I have not worked for other people very much in my career, can anyone imagine working for a guy like this? No class, no clue yet behaves like a know it all all the time while being unpredictable and out of control like a two year old.

I have had the misfortune of working for a person like this 3 separate times in my working career. Needless to say, all 3 times the company was soon shut down afterward. I always felt it was the poor shape of the company that allowed for such a moron to get hired. Hopefully are country is a little stronger.

On a side note, how Trump acts is not a surprise to me. I can't explain why he acts this way, it just follows suit to the experiences I have had.
