How Trump Uses our Government as his Personal ATM

I’m not used to feeling disgust when I file my taxes. Most years, even though it hurts, I’m proud to support our government. I want money going to scientific research that makes us the most advanced and innovative nation on earth. I am truly grateful that we have funded medical research. Some of that is directly responsible for treatments that have literally given new life to people I love. I support spending on education and social security. I am more than willing to pay for our national defense. I prefer roads and bridges and airports that aren’t falling apart. And, I have come to know how important working independent courts are.

Of course, the government is never as efficient as I’d like. I don’t like everything it does. But in the aggregate, it does what Americans, through their members of Congress, agree it should do.

This year is different. This year you and I are being robbed by the lying thief in the White House. It is disgusting.

As the rest of us filed our taxes last week, Trump and his family were “negotiating” with the Justice Department to settle his $10 billion-dollar suit against the us. That suit stems from a contractor’s release of a portion of Trump’s tax return five years ago.

2. I feel the same way. Not only does he get money directly from the IRS but the government

contracts that constantly contribute to him or his family and cronies should be criminal but as usual there is always an excuse as to why we cannot see them and that is nothing new. One of the largest culprits in the defense budget - it is basically a blank checkbook for those in power and they constantly want more....and it gets approved.

As we see our deficit rise our representative government has no intention of stopping it because most are on the take as well.

The same people that were the "Tea Party" when Obama was in office are now the first to have their hand out.

America is exceptional all right....exceptionally corrupt.
