1) Some people think that Trump awarding the G7 contract to himself isn't a big deal. If that is you, you are a fucking idiot. Because if Trump can direct government contracts to his own hotels..
2) then why can't an army procurement officer award a billion dollar contract to a company he or she owns, or, alternatively, set up a company to deliver on upcoming contracts???
3) Or what stops a governor from directing contracts to businesses that he or she owns? Or for that matter, what stops a school superintendent from "supplying" a school district with paper and books from a company that they own?
4) But why stop there: Why shouldn't cops "charge" local businesses for protection? All they have to say now is "If the President does it, it has to be OK". The stench of Trump corruption is going to stick to the @gop for a generation.
5) I don't give a fuck about the @gop The are clowns and deserve their shame. But the damage Trump is doing to the country and to our norms of behavior is incalculable. Trump gives permission for the worst people to do the worst things imaginable.
