Misadventures of a minority-elect President 202

Chronicling the misadventures of our minority-elect President’s alternate reality, alternative facts and the miscreants that comprise his administration so you don’t have to:

Today’s misadventures begin with our malevolent minority-elect president* hiding his rationale for committing war crimes in Syria which he illegally bombed when U.S. paid terrorists illegally used chemicals on the Syrian population, Trump’s fraudulent tax reform scam is beginning to make itself known to all, why it’s important to pay more attention to what Trump does than what he says, apparently the big Orange dumb ass in the White House doesn’t know that taking bribes – especially for public officials – is a crime, Trump’s economic team is living in his land of delusion, the irony of a draft-dodging president* calling someone else a coward, again Trump tries to blame his predecessor for issues that he’s responsible for, a few fraudulent businesses are trying desperately to make Trump’s fraudulent tax reform scam look good – though failing miserably, Trump has no intention of doing anything about gun violence because the NRA owns him, the egregious effects of Trump’s deregulation are making themselves known and much more.

People Are Starting to Realize the GOP Tax Bill Was a Massive Scam article from Alternet. –
https://www.alternet.org/news-amp-politics/people-are-starting-realize-gop-tax-bill-was-massive-scam

It was obvious to anyone paying attention that the Trump / GOP Fraudulent Tax Reform was nothing but a scam from its inception:

“President Donald Trump and the Republicans sold their slapdash effort at tax reform as a boon to the middle class. As the law goes into effect, however, new polling suggests that most Americans are struggling to see any benefit at all in their paychecks.

A survey from Politico and Morning Consult found that only 37 percent of employed people have seen an increase in their paychecks since the law went into effect, while 53 percent of people have not noticed a change.

One big difference between the people who are seeing a pay increase and those who aren’t? Income.

“Our polling shows high-income earners are more likely to have noticed an increase in their paychecks as a result of the tax bill,” said Kyle Dropp, Morning Consult’s co-founder and chief research officer…”

Why it’s important to pay more attention to what Trump does than what he says – his corrupt actions always speak louder than his never-ending lies.

It’s time to stop calling it Russian meddling article from Salon. –
https://www.salon.com/2018/02/21/it-is-time-to-stop-calling-it-russian-meddling/

One of the many reasons America’s worst-ever president* has major meltdowns and repeatedly lies about Russia is the fact that Mueller’s indictment of 13 Russians goes a long way towards revealing that Trump is indeed illegitimate.

Donald Trump’s Loathing for Legal Immigration Doesn’t Apply to His In-Laws article from BuzzFlash. –
http://www.truth-out.org/buzzflash/commentary/donald-trump-s-loathing-for-immigration-doesn-t-apply-to-his-in-laws

Trump can’t stand immigrants until it involves his wife’s family – that is until she divorces him – or it benefits him personally:

“Donald Trump kicked off his 2016 campaign trail by accusing Mexican immigrants of being rapists and drug dealers. It was the first salvo of innumerable attacks on non-whites who come to the United States to make it their home. He was, in essence, promising to keep the United States white by rejecting people who don’t represent a European heritage.

After all, Trump recently opined at a White House meeting on immigration that he didn’t want anybody coming to work or live in the US from “shithole countries” like Haiti and African nations. Instead, he said, preferred people like Norwegians. It does not get any more racist than that.

Trump, in addition, has been working to reduce the number of legal immigrants — individuals who currently have a sanctioned path to work and citizenship based on US law. One of the methods that he wants to see eliminated is what he calls “chain migration.” According to CBS News,

“Chain migration” — officially known as “family reunification” under federal law — is the process by which green card holders or legal U.S. residents may sponsor a family member for immigration to the United States…”

Trump won’t end up facing any collusion charges in his Russia scandal, but the Obstructions of Justice, money laundering and other financial crimes will eventually bring him down.

The unbelievable magic of Trumponomics article from The Week. –
http://theweek.com/articles/756855/unbelievable-magic-trumponomics

Trump’s economic team – made up of miscreants that are just as fraudulent as him – is also living in Trump’s land of delusion:

“Donald Trump is already the worst U.S. president ever — at least according to a new survey of historians released this week. But don’t worry, Trumpsters, it’s still early. A decade of tremendous prosperity covers up a lot of blemishes, as the scandal-stained Bill Clinton — now ranked a very respectable 13th — can attest.

So how lucky is Trump to become president at the start of a sharp acceleration in long-term economic growth? At least that’s the rosy forecast of his economic team, as laid out in the just-released Economic Report of the President.

Now, President Trump has repeatedly promised that his policies would make the economy great again, if not greater. “I think [growth] could go to 4, 5, and maybe even 6 percent, ultimately,” he said after the signing the Republican tax cut bill last year.

Pump the brakes, Mr. President! Such warp-speed growth is highly unlikely unless Alexa becomes sentient and we enter the Singularity of super-intelligent robots. The U.S. economy hasn’t grown anywhere near 6 percent in more than a half century and only for a short stretch. But, hey, Trump gonna Trump…”

https://www.politicususa.com/2018/02/23/trump-blames-obama-jared-kushners-inability-get-security-clearance.html

The incorrigible idiocies of our moronic Liar-in-Chief never cease to amaze as Trump continues proving daily that he has officially lost his mind and is unfit to hold the office he currently occupies.

A Wave of Corporate Propaganda Is Boosting Trump’s Tax Cuts article from The Nation. –
https://www.thenation.com/article/a-wave-of-corporate-propaganda-is-boosting-trumps-tax-cuts/

Most Americans are well aware that Trump’s tax reform scam is a major fraud, but that doesn’t stop some corrupt businesses from trying to make it appear as a success:

“Three major business groups alone—the US Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Realtors, and the Business Roundtable—spent $56 million in the last three months of 2017 lobbying Congress to give them a massive tax cut. According to Public Citizen, 6,243 lobbyists—more than half of the total number of active lobbyists in DC—worked on the bill, which works out to 11 for each and every lawmaker in Congress.

For their effort, they got massive, permanent cuts to the corporate-tax rate. Republicans had talked about closing loopholes so that their cuts wouldn’t blow up the deficit, but that fell by the wayside, and in the end we’ll mostly be financing this huge giveaway through public debt.

Now many of the corporations that lobbied for the bill are trying to make what began as a historically unpopular law more palatable with a series of high-profile announcements crediting the tax cuts for investments that they’d already planned to make or touting one-time bonuses for workers.

Exxon Mobil CEO Darren Woods penned a blog post crediting the tax bill for playing a major role in the company’s plans to invest $50 billion in the United States over the next five years. This generated a slew of headlines along the lines of the one that appeared in Reuters: “Exxon plans major U.S. investments due to tax reform: CEO.” But according to an analysis of the company’s financial statements by Americans for Tax Fairness, that’s actually $2.7 billion less than the company invested in the United States between 2012 and 2016. And Bloomberg reports that the company’s investments dipped in the last couple of years after oil prices crashed, and the capital-investment plan represents nothing more than “a return to the oil giant’s spending habits before crude suffered its worst price rout in a generation.” (The company’s “fourth-quarter profit nearly quintupled after President Trump’s tax cuts gave the oil giant a big lift,” according to USA Today.)…”

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-russia-election-impact_us_5a9098abe4b03b55731c37df

The damage done by leaked – not hacked – emails won Hillary Clinton the popular vote but lost her the electoral college as people were unsure of who to vote for, though to be fair, America never should have been forced to vote for two candidates that both belonged behind bars… and Donald Trump’s presidency will always be illegitimate.

Trump calls Fox’s Judge Jeanine to ramble incessantly about guns, parades and ‘bad guy’ Adam Schiff article from The Raw Story. –
https://www.rawstory.com/2018/02/trump-rambles-judge-jeanine-memo-nothing/

Trump called into Fox faux news to confirm that he is indeed getting all of his ‘intelligence’ from his Ministry of Propaganda:

“Donald Trump called into Jeanine Pirro’s Fox News Channel show on Saturday night to offer a discursive rant about Adam Schiff’s just-released memo and the Russian investigation.

rump opened with a broadside of Schiff, who he accused of being “a leaker” who engaged in behavior that was “probably illegal.”

“He’s a bad guy,” Trump said.

Trump seemed buoyant about the memo Schiff wrote to debunk the Devin Nunes memo…”

https://www.politicususa.com/2018/02/24/1-dynamite-paragraph-dem-memo-proves-trump-russia-collusion.html

AP Exclusive: Transport safety rules sidelined under Trump article from The AP on Yahoo! News. –
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/only-ap-trump-red-tape-060925558.html

The egregious effects of our Ignoramus-in-Chief’s deregulation are beginning to make themselves known:

“WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is putting the brakes on attempts to address dangerous safety problems from speeding tractor-trailers to sleepy railroad engineers as part of his quest to roll back regulations across the government, according to a review by The Associated Press of Transportation Department rule-making activities.

A dozen transportation safety rules under development or already adopted have been repealed, withdrawn, delayed, or put on the back burner since Trump took office last year. There have been no significant new safety rules approved during that time.

The sidelined rules would have, among other things, required states to conduct annual inspections of commercial bus operators, railroads to operate trains with at least two crew members and automakers to equip future cars and light trucks with vehicle-to-vehicle communications to prevent collisions.

In most cases, the rules are opposed by powerful industries. The political appointees running the agencies that write the rules often come from the industries they regulate…”

https://rantt.com/a-complete-breakdown-of-donald-trumps-57th-unpresidented-week-as-potus-76da726a3751

A look at the most recent week of our Hitler-aspiring wannabe dictator’s failed presidency:

“With each passing week, Unpresidented becomes less about Donald Trump and more about the American people.

As the President pretended to listen at the White House to people affected by gun violence, thousands of teenagers across the U.S. walked out of class and took to the streets, ensuring that their voices were heard.

As the Republican members of Congress continued to sit on their hands, Parkland survivors took their inaction to task at the Florida State Capitol and at the CNN town hall.

As the NRA attempted to deflect responsibility for their complicity in the perpetuation of America’s gun violence epidemic, thousands of Americans pressured companies to sever ties with the organization…”
