Are the "Shakes Ups" a WH Fund Raising Ploy? And By Fund Raising, I Mean Kick Backs.

You have to ask "Why would Trump suddenly announce that he is gonna privatize the VA when he has not done it yet?" He ran on a platform of doing it. He took Citizens United campaign bribes to do it. And then he did not deliver. But now, suddenly, as the 2018 midterms loom, privatizing the VA is suddenly a big priority again.

Or is it? Maybe he just wants the medical industrial complex to give him cash for a slice of the VA pie.

Same with Bolton. Maybe the man who never met a war he did not like is just there so Jarred can sell the rights to supply porta-potties or canned beans for the next war (that will never happen).

If Trump wants to make all the money he can before he has to make a hasty exit, he needs to solicit lots of bribes. The way to do that is to make promises. And what better way to make promises than to replace literally everybody in positions of power with new people who have not been bribed yet so they have no promises to keep?

It is all one big con. And the business people who think that Trump is "doing business" with them are being duped along with the rest of America.
