(45,806 posts)is the trumpster! He's got THREE kids & a SIL all playing executive in the WH & around the World, NONE of them qualified to do the "jobs" they're supposed to be doing. I think he's really stupid for even bringing this up because it will backfire on HIM!

There IS a vast difference between the massive corruption of the Trump family, in which Ivanka and Jr took in over $80M from foreign governments doing them favors while employed in the WH, and Hunter's "NO CORRUPTION BUT IT LOOKS BAD!" position on that board as a private citizen.

(4,291 posts)Wasnt her hubby supposed to develop a Middle East peace plan? And so, todays headlines would be the putrid fruits of JarJars labors? Am I correct in connecting these particular dots?
Fairs fair. He did get the Kingdumb of Saud to bale out the tower at 666 Fifth Ave. So in true RepubliCON fashion personal enrichment trumps the greater good.
Another scary bit for those who of us who arent already chronic insomniacs: these two bubbleheads are breeding. (See the precious Stormtrooper family photo).

A particularly dim and 'edgy' MAGAt coworker--I think he may have gotten himself fired for running around telling everyone they were required to say 'Merry Christmas' instead of 'Happy Holidays' after God Emperor Puppet Sharpie 'won' the election--ranted at me that the Ivankabot1000 would ultimately become America's First Lady. I don't know if he meant 'first woman president' or that Puppet Sharpie would marry his own daughter; I was laughing at him too hard to ask. (I did manage to wish him a Happy Hanukkah as he stormed out the door.)

(5,401 posts)1. He only trusts immediate family.
2. Does NOT trust anyone smarter than him.
(Yes, the full list of Trump's problems goes up to 275+ items.)
Those two problems kind of restricts his inner circle of advisors, really!
Imagine of previous presidents had acted like that?
Trump sees that as a 'safe' option. Nepotism though? Surely not!
