Can you imagine the outrage if any other US president engaged in such blatant corruption and violations of the Emoluments Clauses?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 70 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Any Democratic president, you mean. Rules never seem to apply to Republicans.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 28 points 1 day ago

That’s because Republicans don’t have principles. They only respect power.

I don't know, Trump's never done anything to compare with what Obama did.

I don't know why we don't talk about it more, it rocked the political world. Still is!

I knew what this was before I clicked it! On top of everything else, I love the choice of music. It's the same pseudo-oriental music they use in movies and TV show when they introduce a terrorist lair in some Arabic nation. Preferably in squalor. Unbearable heat, hungry children barely moving in the dust. Or a docu about Al Qaeda.

edit: oh, it's just a cut from the whole video. How could you forget Dijon-Gate, Bicycle-Gate and many more! Truly the worst POTUS ever. And people begrudge Trump a little vanity. SMH
