$500 million no-bid contract for a project that Trump said wasn’t going to cost us a dime

NOT ONE DIME FROM THE TAXPAYERS!!!!!
Oh, wait... If we ever see the books on this project it's going to be s**t show. If some of you thought the reflecting pool was poorly run, just wait on this one. It seems like the general contractor has a ton of experience with government contracts, but, Trump was personally involved. It's going to be filled with mismanagement, cost run ups, and grift to favored contractors.

I suppose the good thing about all this blatant corruption is it proves that Trump voters are really just spineless cucks.
for curiosity, what would you have trump voters do at this point?
Did you approve of everything Biden did during his term? It is possible to vote for someone and not agree with all of their actions. I would expect that it happens in every administration. When the ballroom was being paid for with donated funds, it was a ho hum in my mind. If it's costing taxpayer dollars, then it should have been approved by Congress.
Stop voting for Trumpers in primaries?
“I don’t really care about corruption because xyz…”‘isn’t really a compelling argument
Impeach Trump and then send him the bill for the ballroom and reflection pool.
well that was a great response, but totally avoided both questions I asked...but as I posted, what would you have us do? Impeach him? This might be a surprise but I don't have a vote in an impeachment
How about actually say you are unhappy with what he has done.... Without immediately mentioning something vaguely similar that a Democrat has done?
Not vote for Congressional candidates that will blindly enable him.
Stop defending every illegal and unethical thing he does for a start.
Because it’s a pointless question? Be outraged that you voted to put an incredibly corrupt person in the Oval Office. Be outraged that none of the other elected officials in his party have any desire to hold him accountable.
just do something besides constantly trying to “well what about…” anytime something comes up even slightly disparaging about Trump.
Encourage your current Congressman or woman to introduce articles of impeachment? Maybe vote for those in the upcoming election that aren’t Trump nut huggers?
Wake the F up would be a fantastic start.
Here is a thought, don't vote for candidates who bow and scrape for Trump's approval, and don't vote for candidates who promise to support Trump 100 percent of the time. That's what you can do right now.
Never had a man been owned by so many, payments received.
Call your Congressman and let them know you expect them to hold him accountable for his obscene level of blatant corruption.
When he tells you to vote for the corrupt candidate over the one with some integrity, don't do it. (See Paxton/Cornyn or the Indiana congressmen who got voted out for having integrity.)
Indiana GOP legislators who defied Trump on redistricting are defeated
Donald Trump’s vow to extract retribution on Republican state senators in Indiana who rejected his plan to redraw the state’s congressional map got results Tuesday, with at least five of them losing to challengers backed by the president. According to The Associated Press, one state senator...
If you really disapprove of a maga candidate but you won't vote Democrat, sit it out and don't vote at all.
If a pollster calls you, tell them you disapprove.
Stop defending him
It's truly incredible that Ned apparently "worked" with the government and for pacs for a long time and really doesn't understand that nothing is "business as usual" with the current administration. And that's not some "tds, left wing, bias" even maga owns up that they want to burn everything down, aren't traditionally conservative/republican, and are fine with Trump doing all this crazy shi t.
My brother, it’s taxpayer money. There’s a payment.
Not caring about presidential corruption has become normal as crazy as that is.
Cheap. He owns them on the cheap. He does not benefit the lower income folks that are so belligerently in his corner.
Yeah. Could have told you this was going to age extremely poorly.
Maybe stop the mild, slightly passive aggressive whataboutism and acknowledge that POS for what he is? Doing so doesn’t make you a “libtard” just shows your eyes are open and you acknowledge the reality of the world around you.
The Trump era is a decade plus now. Lots of Gen Z don't know politics any other way, it's all they know. Not good.
Sad, actually.
