New Trump foreign adviser accused of Holocaust denial: 'Ovens were too small to kill 6 million Jews'
... Right when you think the Donald Trump and his campaign can’t get any worse, this.
By the way, Joseph Schmitz and Donald Trump, the Holocaust victims weren’t killed in the ovens. Their bodies where cremated in ovens until the Nazis switched to mass graves. While conducting your foreign advisory board meetings, perhaps read up on some world history. You’ll discover most of the Jewish Holocaust victims were shot, gassed, starved, burned alive, frozen alive, crushed alive, diseased, worked to death, beaten to death, and murdered while being used for human experimentation— without the use of anesthetics… You fucking fucks.
Trump names donor who gave $6 mil to Super PAC, $5 mil to Trump Foundation to Cabinet-rank position
Donald Trump has named former World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Linda McMahon as his nominee to head the Small Business Association. Notably, McMahon has made significant contributions to getting Donald Trump elected:
Not only did the near-billionaire McMahon pony up big time to get him elected, she’s also the single largest donor to the Trump Foundation, having given nearly as much as the total amount Trump AND his companies have donated to the foundation themselves ...... She's donated $6 million in August and September to Rebuilding America Now, a super PAC that supported Trump's presidential bid.
Can you say “pay to play”? Trump is handing out admin jobs to cronies and loyalists like champagne at Mar-A-Lago Resort wedding. Boy, it's a good thing "Crooked Hillary" isn't around to pass along jobs to her foundation donors.
But, a few days prior Kellyann Conway says:Reports by @CNN that I will be working on The Apprentice during my Presidency, even part time, are ridiculous & untrue - FAKE NEWS!
Then a whataboutism deflection to Obama playing golf.http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/09/politics/ ... pprentice/
Kellyanne Conway on Friday defended President-elect Donald Trump's decision to remain an executive producer on NBC's "Celebrity Apprentice" even as he takes office, arguing that "presidents have a right to do things in their spare time."
Yeah, makes sense. You've all probably encountered the same discussion:bannination wrote:http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/ ... ian-213533
That makes so much sense.... the #1 predictor of being a Trump supporter is being an authoritarian.
And then there's Trump's visit to Mexico a few months ago to meet with the Mexican President. Anti-Mexico tough talk before. Anti-Mexico tough talk after returning, in a speech the same night. But during the visit? No tough-talk. He acted thoroughly intimidated, like he was in the presence of a superior alpha male.JTA wrote:A friend of mine often praised Trump for being so "alpha" and saying and doing whatever he wanted with disregard for others.
Haha. Hilarious. Do you have a source for that? I'd like to read about it.

Donald Trump visited Mexico where he met the president, Enrique Peña Nieto, and spoke of his affection for Mexicans as “honest, hardworking people”. He then went to Arizona where he reiterated his hardline policy on immigration, promising to build an “impenetrable ” wall on the border that Mexico would pay for. Mr Trump said he did not discuss who would pay for the wall with Mr Peña Nieto; the president said they did and it wouldn’t be Mexico.

Since he supplied the funding to purchase the ammunition given to Iran, we can reasonably assume that he's never criticised dealings with Iran.
I'm over it. I'm just watching him "drain the swamp" by stocking the swamp with largest beasts than we've ever seen in a cabinet. He's such an outsider don't cha know??Mr.B wrote:

Marco Rubio: ‘I have serious concerns’ about Rex Tillerson nomination
A tough statement from Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., on Tuesday suggests that Rex Tillerson could face a rocky confirmation hearing for secretary of state.
Rubio, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which will preside over Tillerson’s hearing, took a number of implicit shots against the CEO’s record at ExxonMobil....
Rubio had previously expressed reservations about Tillersons’s ties to Russia. In 2013, the business mogul won Russia’s Order of Friendship award after signing deals with a Kremlin-owned oil company, according to the Washington Post.
“Being a ‘friend of Vladimir’ is not an attribute I am hoping for from a #SecretaryOfState,” Rubio tweeted Sunday....
