Isn't this basically enrich your friends and frankly illegal admitting passing laws to benefit friends and family.

A Republican president may serve "the people's business" and voodoo economics. Given.

Micromanaging individuals, individual businesses, individual corporations - identifying winners and losers by name - reeks of corruption.

Keep digging, Mr. Precedent!

to be set so low and the idiotic Trumpisms are being spewed at such a rate that the press cannot seem to keep up. As my 89 year old mother said again today: "Can someone please hurry up and get him out of there?"

At some point, will those who voted for tRump because he was going to help the workers realize he lied through his teeth and instead is bending over backwards to take care of rich people and companies such as Goldman Sachs, etc.?

I'm happy to give up all those awful safeguards and protections on my paltry little nest egg if it will help a few of Trump's billionaire friends secure their next multimillion dollar loan deal to build a factory in some wretched 3rd world country and exploit more poor, brown people.

did those words really come out of his mouth!??!!!?

THIS needs to be played over and over and over!! If the MSM does not jump on this they are not doing their job.

The president of the United States just openly said that he is doing something lawfully just because it will benefit HIS friends!!!!

While i am enjoying all the fun about that conway person's misspeak THIS here is what needs to go viral!!
