The Founders feared the rise of someone who lacked good character. What it didn’t count on was the two other branches led by people without good character.

What exactly do you do all day to earn your $223,500 salary?
That Russian tzar sensibility. Or Pittsburgh Embassy Suites
Communist Party?!! It fully endorsed the partial nationalization of Intel Corporation.
I found the inspiration for Trump’s abomination of a ballroom.

Start paying attention, WaPo. Trump 2.0 is about Viewpoint Homogeneity.
The fact is Trump does not need to file suit. He might have the money already and we’ll never know until someone leaks it.

How about a bill to stop the desecration of the White House?! JFC
The Departmental Auditorium is big enough for state dinners.

Trump is preparing the ground for not leaving.
I bagged an eltist on my last hunting trip.
Trump is aiming for that Russian tsar look and feel. But with modern Courtyard by Marriott sensibility
Grotesque desecration and abomination.
From the @newyorker.com "Daily" today.

The White House doesn't belong to him. He holds it in trust both for future occupants and for the American people.

Johnson is not very good at this.
