Just wondering why she didn't rail against Obama's budget deficits.


President Donald Trump, WHO INHERITED A WIDENING BUDGET SHORTFALL from President Obama, has expanded it some more by subtracting revenue through tax cuts.

Gee, I wish this came as a surprise. Unfortunately, when you believe in ghosts, you're likely to believe anything.

New revelations implicate Donald Trump Jr. in his father’s nefarious schemes

We now have concrete confirmation that Donald Trump Jr. signed checks reimbursing Michael Cohen for payments he made as part of a criminal scheme on President Trump’s behalf. The New York Times has obtained eight of the checks from Trump’s accounts reimbursing hush-money payments made by Cohen, his former lawyer and fixer.

The signature of Trump’s eldest son is on two of them.

The eight checks bolster the outlines of the story Cohen has told. He recently testified that during the campaign, Trump knowingly entered into a conspiracy with him to buy the silence of Stormy Daniels about an alleged affair, a criminal violation of campaign finance laws at Trump’s direction, and then reimbursed Cohen throughout 2017, while Trump was president.

Two of the checks came from a trust and thus were signed by Trump Organization chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg and Trump Jr.

In a remarkable coincidence, the Times reports that one of the checks signed by Trump Jr. was issued on the same day that a Trump aide confirmed that the president had helped dictate a statement by Trump Jr. falsifying the rationale behind the infamous 2016 Trump Tower meeting. At that meeting Trump Jr. eagerly tried to conspire with Russia to corrupt our election on his father’s behalf.

That confluence of events neatly captures the seamy role that Trump Jr. has played throughout this whole affair, on multiple fronts.

"lulz", the "winning" never stops.

More evidence that everything Trump touches turns to shit:

Fox News faces consequences for Trump propaganda

Fox News has branded itself as a conservative network housing a squad of sycophants for President Trump. The Democratic National Committee has chosen to honor that branding. In a statement to The Post’s Paul Farhi, DNC Chairman Tom Perez declared that the No. 1 cable-news network wouldn’t be hosting any Democratic primary debates in the 2020 cycle...

That’s a blow to Fox News, which in 2016 made an executive priority of pursuing a Democratic debate, an effort that ultimately fizzled. The 12 televised Democratic debates are likely to dominate far more than 12 news cycles. These are major political events, “appointment” viewing for the politically motivated across the country. Carrying debates guarantees an audience far in excess of the average prime-time cable-news program. Memorable debate moments get re-aired on the Web and on the broadcasts of competitors, guaranteeing brand elevation for the network with debate rights.

Democratic National Committee rejects Fox News for debates, citing New Yorker article
