That's called using the system. He understands tha system and knows how to use it, as opposed to career politicians who had never done anything except angling for votes

you guys are missing the point. He is accusing Kamala of pumping money to celebrities for her endorsement. This is the issue.

It is the same thing misuse of office isn't it?

Provide contrary evidence


In what may be the most valuable gift ever extended to the United States from a foreign government, the Trump istration is preparing to accept a super luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the royal family of Qatar -- a gift that is to be available for use by President Donald Trump as the new Air Force One until shortly before he leaves office, at which time ownership of the plane will be transferred to the Trump presidential library foundation, sources familiar with the proposed arrangement told ABC
News.

You guys are very funny. Criticizing Donald Trump who went to the middle East to secure over 2 trillion dollars contracts and he has secured over 12 trillion contracts for the USA in 4 months while your Tinubu is gallivanting over Europe with nothing to show of.
Make una rest for rubbish criticism when you don't know anything about that man.

So it's now ok to pay for political endorsements just because you hate Trump. Your Trump hatred is making you believe that wrong is right.

Is that worse than the $200 million Elon Musk injected into his campaign?
Is it worse than the $400 million jet bribe he is set to get from Qatar?

He's doing UNPOPULAR things that need to be done. China and other countries were on track to migrate most American jobs abroad. Countries like Canada (untouchable "closest ally"wink cheating US on tariffs. Fed Gov overbloated with all sorts of funny jobs and contracts. Plus going after biased, corrupt media including beloved PBS. Tackling these things cost votes because people affected and those who love them fight back!
What we told ourselves through Buhari’s istration when he closed borders. Anyway, the conversation is whether the American voters who first gave him the mandate but now drops his rating by the hour agree with your submission on “unpopular decisions.” Who even told you guy’s unpopular decisions are always correct decisions? I close by pointing you to the fact that he’s quickly backtracking on these unpopular decisions, makes one wonder if his policy summersault and knee jerk approach to governance are worth it.

Trump is fighting back with what he has. If you criticize the king so personally on a world stage just make sure you have nothing to hide

what is trump fighting?

who made trump a king?

is there a law in the US constitution that says Trump cannot be criticised?

should trump be calling for Springsteen to be investigated because hecriticised trump?

The planned gift of the 13-year-old, Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet, which Trump would inherit personally after he leaves the White House, has achieved the seemingly impossible: it has united the president’s most fervent fans with his most ardent opponents. Laura Loomer, the far-right Maga activist, warned that the proposed gift would put “such a stain on the istration”.

Qatar's GDP is 230 billion dollars, yet Trump claims he's got over 1 trillion dollars investment from Qatar.

Nothing wrong with being a career politician.

A failed businessman does not an accomplished public officer make.

By the way, Moody's just downgraded the US economy.

A recession is imminent.

Household costs are rising.

The stock market is on the downswing yet again.

Trump's popularity is tanking.

Medical costs are rising.

National Debt is increasing.

Taxes are decreasing for the super rich.

8 trillion Dollars debt was what Trump added in his first term.

Contrast that with Obama's debt of 8 trillion dollars over 8 years.

Your understanding of US law is that Congress needs to debate before the president can accept a gift.
Ok, here is a list of gifts accepted by Obama. there was no congress debate and no fake public outcry.
Gifts from Saudi Arabia:
These included elaborate and valuable items, such as gold-plated, jewel-encrusted horse sculptures.
There were also gifts of jewelry, and other luxury items.
There were also gifts of Cuban cigars, and dutch bicycles.
Gifts from Cuba:
From Raul Castro, President Obama and his family received Cuban cigars, rum, and a wooden bust of Abraham Lincoln.
Gifts from Morocco:
The King of Morocco presented the Obama family with ornate jewelry, including a gold-plated brooch with diamonds and rubies.
Gifts from other nations:
There were various other gifts, including artwork, sculptures, and other culturally significant items from different countries.

I just see all the hateful TDS comments here and i get to understand why the democrats will find it very hard winning another presidential elections with the way them and their followers act and reason like they are smarter and wiser than everyone else when they are infact the very opposite of smart, reasonable or intelligent... Anyways you guys can keep blabbing.. I have gone past the point of my life where i listen to what people say, i simply watch and observe actions to make guided decisions of what is what and who actually is dbumb.

The United States under Trump is getting its respect back which they derms had turned into a laughing stock..

Although the majority of gifts were handed over, employees can keep items if they pay the US government out of their own pocket an amount equal to the value of the present.

So it is not illegal for presidents to collect gifts so why the outcry. But it is illegal to pay for political endorsements yet somehow you are ok with that.

If he must keep the gift, he must pay the US government the equivalent cost of the gift.

fergie001:
President Trump called for a “major investigation” into former Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing the failed presidential candidate of breaking the law by paying world-class artists to perform at rallies and endorse her.

The President slammed Harris for her celebrity-filled campaign events leading up to the November election — name-checking Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Oprah Winfrey and U2’s Bono.

So petty
