@bonchieredstate This is what simping for a dictator loving clown gets you dude.
Trump isn't even an actual conservative. He's just a populist demagogue and narcissistic authoritarian.
@MMAdamMartin The messages looked very fake and staged. Even if DC actually posted this, I doubt those DMs were actually from Eric Trump.
There's billions in real, verifiable corruption from the Trumps, no need to make up things.
@neoavatara How do you think they got into Trump's cabinet in the first place?
For being sniveling yesmen. Those lowlives aren't about to finally find the principles and balls that they already sold out long ago.
@DFersin@bonchieredstate Not a dime huh?
Just like the privately funded ballroom which all of a sudden is costing taxpayers a billion right?
Ok, the $60 million number is an exaggeration, the real number is more like $12 million for security. Still way too much. Should be zero.
@JoePompliano "events surrounding the country's 250th birthday".
This isn't an event for the country's birthday though. It's for Trump's birthday. That's why they're having it on a Sunday, when UFC events are always on a Sat.
Just typical waste, fraud, and corruption from the Trump admin.
@GoadGatsby Perfect metaphor for Trump's presidency, and, indeed, for his entire nepobaby conman career:
Make a bunch of grandiose claims and wild promises, make things worse through incompetence and ignorance, leave taxpayers holding the bag, and then do a victory lap.
The Trump MAGA way.
@DrNeilStone Because Trump is an incompetent reality TV buffoon and nepo baby.
Homie still doesn't have an actual healthcare plan even 11 years after he first ran for office.
@LasVegasLocally They should have built the stadium somewhere else. Anywhere else (downtown, Henderson, Summerlin wherever).
Going to be terrible for an already bad traffic situation in that location.
@DrNeilStone True. Now do Trump.
You keep spending all your time going after JD and RFK (and Platner), all while giving the worst of the bunch, Trump, a total pass.
We see this kind of cognitive dissonance a lot in Trump supporters.
@bonchieredstate "doesnโt want to go down as the weakest president of the last two centuries".
He already has. He's the first president in US history who was too chickenshit to accept his election loss, and who then attempted a coup to stay in power anyway.
@TheWestIsDying@GalahadTheRad@AdamHillLVRJ Cult members are always eager to give their money to dear leader. That's your business, as long as it's your money.
But taxpayer dollars shouldn't be spent on this vanity BS, especially when we're already trillions in debt (with Trump adding trillions more every year).
@TheWestIsDying@GalahadTheRad@AdamHillLVRJ They dropped the $1bn request from the budget because it wouldn't have passed, but they're still asking for it: https://t.co/GVHRnODgoV
The point is that more than much more than zero taxpayer dollars are being spent on the ballroom despite promising it would be privately funded
@GalahadTheRad@AdamHillLVRJ I call BS. Show the receipts.
Trump claimed the ballroom would be paid purely by private donors and then we find out the taxpayers are on the hook for $1bn for it.
Even if the UFC is paying most of the costs (not proven), taxpayers are still paying for all the extra security.
