If our Republic survives this mess, every penny that family has should be seized and used to correct the damage they've wrought.

It's amusing to me how anyone still believes Trump plans on being a temporary resident of the White House.

That's why I said "IF."

"Trump is only the temporary occupant of the WH"

Tell that to the Bored of Peace with which DJT is replacing NATO... and his lifetime leadership thereof.

Commission members who vote to approve this monstrosity know they will do so at the cost of their reputations and professional standing. The MAGA members who vote think that Der Dotard will reward them somehow, but he will kick them to the curb once they cast their votes. The sensible ones will abstain or walk in front of a bus on their way to the meeting where they would vote. A losing proposition any way. Better to resign now ...

I'll be shocked if he survives to 2028. He's visibly rotting.
