    I'm going to need video/audio of him doing this. I still remember being in Denver for a summer internship and being told "wow, you don't have an accent at all even though you're Mexican."

     

     

     

    Holy. Fucking. Shit.

    Every day I think that Trump can't top himself, then he goes out and does it. 

    The damned of it is that the agent speaks English better than Trump does.

    I was at a friends wedding and I grew up Presbyterian so the communion ritual is almost identical.  I forgot I was in a Catholic Church at the time and my best friend, who is very Catholic and he knows I’m not was behind me in line.  He didn’t say anything.  

    So when I got to the priest and I didn’t know their little code word the priest asked me if I was Catholic.  I said no. The priest was visibly PISSED off.  He gave me a blessing.  Once we got back to our seats my Catholic friend Tony could not stop laughing at what just transpired.  And he was laughing at the reaction of the priest.

     

    This is 100% bullshit. "Code word?"  What? 

  4. So Omarosa's tape revealed that she was offered 15k per month in hush money that would come out of the Trump campaign's "small donors."  That's terrible.  That money is meant to buy off porn stars.

  6. GAO:  Trump's wall could waste billions of dollars.

     

    Quote

    WASHINGTON — The Trump administration could potentially waste billions of dollars on a border wall because it failed to fully account for factors like varying terrain and land ownership along the Southwest border, according to a new report.

    The report, conducted by the Government Accountability Office, found that Customs and Border Protection, the agency responsible for construction of the wall, did not consider the cost of building along each segment of the border, which can vary depending on factors such as topography and land ownership.

    The report also found that the agency selected locations for barriers without fully assessing where they were needed to prevent illegal border crossings.
