I bet you get all excited at a football game when they place the ball.

Call me when something significant happens.

I don't recall such concentration on the daily ins and outs of any other prior administration in the entire history of off-topic, which has now spanned four presidents...

You mean to tell me no other administration has experienced turnover?

WOW!

Trump dominates the media 24 hours a day. there has never been anyone before as good as that. the fake media and Fox News (not fake media according to Trump) is making a fortune because of him.

Making a fortune, or just staving off bankruptcy for a few more years in some cases?

true, if not for Trump, some of these might have closed up shop by now. their on air personalities are way overpaid. NBC gave Megan Kelley $14 million a year. i would have given her a kick in the rear!

You love to ask rhetorical questions. Or maybe you just weren't around for Nixon.

I'll start.

Money for Kanye West's clothing company. Money for David Boies. Money for Elaine Chao's (McConnell's wife) family. Money for Marc Kasowitz (Trump's lawyer). Money for Madeleine Albright. Money for Grover Norquist (he receives the hypocrisy award). Money for investment advisors (laughable and shameful at the same time). The list is long.

Money for = money received by an affiliated business.

I wonder how you reacted to government bailouts during 2008/9? You're a bit of an enigma, so I'm really not sure.

I'm sure if I said something that might embarrass me, someone here will pull up the posts.
