So Trump is doing this for his own personal gain?

What is the gain, that he just like being the President and working his arse off, he’s not taking any money.

It's not so much his gain as their fear of the money machine being disrupted for a brief period of time.

I think 95% of what the Gentlewoman from Florida said was complete and utter bullshite.

The 5%, we are all Americans.

Think if his wealth after becoming president multiplied at half the rate of the last two democrats to hold the office.

Good hearted Don. So trustworthy. The MOST trustworthy. No chance in hell he’d ever lie about enriching himself. It’s not like money and status are even important to him.

Yep, that “aid” is lining both parties bank accounts. Looks like Ukraine is more Dems and their donors, than Repubs. Look behind the scenes and why Dems are fighting so hard about hiding what’s in Ukraine... Repubs got their hands in it too. Stop the Foreign aid, that’s why they hate Trump, and Americans love him, most see through the crap...

Don't remember who to attribute this quote to, but

"Foreign aid is poor people in rich countries giving money to rich people in poor countries."

Oh look, more conjecture without evidence. But then again that's kind of your thing.

There’s a body of evidence for me to make a character judgement. He’s the type of guy who bends the law to enrich himself. He has done it before. He said it himself, “It makes me smart.” And he’s right. He is very smart.

Detail your evidence. If there's so much, it should be rather easy.

Primary sources please.

that's excellent

but in reality, 47% of Americans, the poor, unemployed, or retired do not pay federal taxes

In all honesty you make a better case than congressional Democrats.

Do you think Obama got rich because of his presidential salary?

What a world we live in! I’m a fricking idiot because I’m skeptical of the greedy motives of a billionaire politician.

I’m a rube because I can’t trust that Donald Trump is acting not on his own behalf but rather fighting for little ol’ me.

Perhaps you should reflect on your own thread

Clearly you understand that there are multiple people on the hill and some former presidents that used their power to benefit their own financial success right?

Why would you think that there is a 0% chance that Trump would do this?

Why would you think the presidential salary would even be a blip on the radar with the type of money that could be made through more nefarious means?

You started a thread that was based on some pretty stupid statements. I wouldn't be throwing stones.

Plus what's more suspicious?

A politician who gets rich in office, or before?

Wanna guess which is much, much more common?
