    Trump, his family, and his entourage are doing all sorts of fraudulent insider trading, which is a seriously illegal crime. They are getting richer every day; meanwhile, average Americans need a payment plan just to be able to afford groceries. These people are a whole bunch of greedy, opportunistic, incompetent individuals. They aren’t better people than the rest of us. Almost everything they do is against the teachings of the Bible. The Bible teaches that all people are valuable before God and should not be judged by status, wealth, ethnicity, or other outward differences. We need to expose and denounce them so they can no longer use Christianity to blaspheme the name of the Lord, hide behind it, distract people, and take advantage of people who don’t understand their games. They are fake Christians!

    Proverbs 28:8 (NIV)

    “Whoever increases wealth by taking interest or profit from the poor amasses it for another, who will be kind to the poor.”

    Barack Obama couldn’t even have a basketball hoop on the grounds of the White House, without these idiots complaining about him desecrating the White House grounds, not to mention wearing a tan suit.

    It’s obvious that American political parties don’t vet potential candidates to avoid having people represent them that will tarnish the party?

    In Australia the two major parties conduct an exhaustive vetting process before allowing a potential candidate to represent them.

    It’s called democracy. America has been experimenting with the concept for 250 years while the rest of the world has moved ahead by centuries.

    The Clampetts are in the White House. I find it so funny all the sterotypes of bkack people is live, front, and center with trump. If I didn't know he was born rich you would think he was trailer park dweller.

    If he the orange blob would of not of gotten away with what he did to the rose garden we wouldn't of had our white house like it is now. Discusting mess. Looks like the meth heads moved in. This is what happens when there's no one telling him NO you can't do that.

    Hey, Don. Can you get Governor Newsom to challenge Trump to the cage match at that UFC event on the White House lawn. Only that would justify taxpayers paying for this stupid event.
