Pay for Play and more Ethics Violations by Trump; Punishable by Prison Time

By James Turnage, author of “A Brother’s Revenge”

You would have to be the least informed person in America not to know that Trump’s presidency is focused on two personal accomplishments; using the national treasury to live the life of a billionaire, and increasing his personal wealth by using his position.

If this was any other of our 44 presidents, the media would be repeating recent scandals involving Trump. Pence’s stay in Trump’s Irish golf course, and the revelation that our military has frequently stayed at Trump’s property in Scotland would continue to be frontpage news. Sadly, the mainstream media has supported Trump and held him to the lowest standard possible since 2015.

Many foreign leaders have stayed at Trump’s Washington hotel, and on one is screaming, “ethics violation, ethics violation.” Republicans are adding income to Trump’s bank account by using his properties for multiple events. Mar-a-Lago continues to profit from Trump’s many vacations. When Trump golfs at his millionaires only resorts; taxpayers pay. Golf cart rentals for the secret service have already reached one-half million dollars alone.

The latest event will be a “conservative” event held at the D.C. Hotel; headlined by losers Mike Pence and Mike Pompeo.

‘Corruption’ is the only accurate word I can use to describe the Trump administration. They are a gang of billionaires and millionaires whose only goals are to fatten their wallets.

Trump should never have been elected; and I know that’s not news or enlightening. However, we must focus on electing the best woman for the job in 2020. America needs real change; change which will return democracy, and concern for the people of America.

Some of the damage Trump has done to our nation is irreparable. However, the right president; a real American; can reverse some of the intentional negative actions by Trump and his cronies.

The 2020 election will be the most important in history. Every eligible voter must go to the polls. It is up to us to save America. If you do not vote, you don’t care about what the future will bring for yourself, your family, or your friends.

The date is November 3, 2020 and it’s closer than you think. Become informed and do the right thing.

Tell everyone; “the truth lives here.”
