    If the Ethics Commision finds his laundry is dirty, then he should not be confirmed, demanded to resign from Congress, and get his azz locked up....and, the same goes for every Dem. and Rep. congressman who is found guilty of that sheeit.

    Nope, there's two of them, a he and a she. The she not only plagarized fifty times in a book she published and made money off of, but also plagarized in her phd thesis. I guess Princeton is looking into that now. so, a liar and a thief nominated for the person who would communicate to us about national security. Where's the concern for secrets and shot you were sll worked up about?
    The second guy just sold his soul to the devil and invested in a company he passed a law to help. And enriched himself from his use of his public position. I thought that was a big no no too. Isn't it?
    Or is it okay now because 'everybody does it'?

    Today, the Orange Dick with tiny little hands approval rating is at 40, the lowest in history of an incoming president.

    And the Republicans claim there's a mandate! That's richer than three feet up a bull's ass.

    Not that it's relevant or makes any difference but, so much for the "honeymoon period" that most newly elected Presidents get.

    I'm confused by your quaint country speak. What's it really like 3 feet up a bulls ass? How is it rich? Should I ask Larke or Jimmy?

    Seems the same to me as all the conservative crying and whining when obamas started naming people like van jones. Conservatives wanted to make Obama responsible for building bombs with ayers to blow the legs off wimmin and children. And burn white churches with the good reverend whatshisface.

    Political theater.

    It does look like that picture of the Hindenburg, currently

    Check out Innate Immunotherapeutics. An Aussie company that was basically trading for .28 a share just a year ago, Senator Price and a guy on Trump's team, Representative Chris Collins was made a sweetheart deal by the company to buy their stock at .18. Its at 1.34 now. Both Price and Collins were on congressional committees that had influence over the company's ability to do business in the US. Now if you check who owns the most of their stock, guess who, Chriss Collins and his family members. As largest stockholder Collins now sits on the board. I think both have said theyd divest within 90 days of theor confirmation. That's of course afyer the investment has cleared what, 640%? I think I'd go for that deal.

    I guess it's so nice that no Democrat has ever done anything like that. Since they all care so much for the poor the give all their money to help them.

    I know you'll say arguing that everyone does it don't make it right, but if it's so wrong why hasn't the Democrats in Congress gone after them previously for doing this? Why wait until they get nominated for a spot on Trump's staff?

    Well, who do you know of that has done it and gotten away with it? If so many Democrats do it, then name just one or two that have done it and not gotten busted.
    Sure, there's stuff like this that gets outed on both sides of politics. They suffer the consequences and the world grinds on. Its not too often though that its done bald faced, screw the consequences, knowing full well there are a million eyes looking. You and the other Trumpsters are continually harping on Hillary thinking she can get away with stuff. Yet you want a free pass for these two guys?
    Methinks it smells in here.

    Well, since these guys apparently have been "caught", and no one knew about these issues before their nominations, I'd say there are more than likely several Democrat members of Congress who have or are doing the same thing and haven't been caught yet.

    I can list several who have been caught: Chris Dodd, Charles Rangel, Alan Mollohan, Jesse Jackson, Jr., Laura Richardson, Maxine Waters......Do you need me to go on?

    As they say

    Did the accusations against Price and Collins come out before they were? Have they been taken before the ethics committee?

    And why does that make a difference? I guess it's ok if they do it while in Congress as long as they don't get nominated for a Cabinet position. Now I understand.

    If they are talking about you, they are scared of ya...
    The ONLY news you are going to hear about Trump or anyone close to him by main street media is gonna be negitive for two reasons. 1) He's made it clear he don't need them, and 2) they have not been able to talk shit about Obama for 8 years because they would have been called racist.
    So now they got a rich white guy in there so they got some catching up to do.
    I predict Trump will win his reelection in 4 years.
