Air Force crew made an odd stop on a routine trip: Trumps Scottish resort
An overnight stay at the property raised conflict-of-interest concerns and is part of a House probe into military spending at and around the Trump retreat.

So no problem.
Hell, any GOP could do this and almost half the country would say so what!
Therefore we no longer have a functioning society. We cant survive this way.

(7,947 posts)But won't be. But it's still important. It's not just costing the taxpayers money. It's also putting the military members at risk, to have them land and leave from an unfamiliar commercial airport and make that diversion that isn't scheduled or planned for.
And why? Not because a passenger was deathly ill or there was some emergency on board or a declaration of war... but because the president's resort was losing money?

No wonder he kowtows to Putin and the Russians.

(31,374 posts)I couldn't believe the chutzpah. Unbelievable corruption.
This is what's going on with Republicans. Putting money in their own pockets--or those of their buddies--is what they view as the primary purpose of government.
The con, the grifting, the corruption is totally out of control.
He must be impeached.

Putting children in cages should have had the entire country massing in the streets demanding immediate cessation to this inhumane debauchery.
The House should have been holding all-nighters to denounce this criminal treatment of children and pass resolutions to stop this madman from further deranged policies.
What did we hear from the House and Nancy Pelosi ?
CRICKETS.
I have lost patience with all of them.
