The president is funneling more money into his pelican jowls at the expense of the American taxpayer, says Full Frontal host Samantha Bee. The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is currently investigating why the Air Force has been stopping at Trumps ritzy resort in Scotland and refueling at Prestwick Airport when a U.S. Naval base would be cheaper, and thats just one of several resort-related controversies. Bee also highlights Vice President Mike Pences stay at one of Trumps struggling golf courses in Ireland and the presidents proposal that the next G-7 meeting take place at the Trump National Doral Miami Golf Club.
It sucks that the U.S. government is now just a coupon for the presidents shitty resorts, said Bee...............................

good morals or ethics since our country began. sure, there were a few crooks--like Nixon but for the most part, they held back.--Until Trump and his total lack of morals entered the Oval office.

Which makes me happy in a way. Every resident set by the conservatives in the KGOP and Cult45, makes it that much easier for democrats to do the same when we attain power. No oversight. Not penalties, just raw grifting. I'm 100% okay with that.
