NO, dumbasses... But that's what the left has been pushing.
NO, dumbasses.
But he governed in a way that was generally exactly what I voted for.
YOU'd better not do what he did. And we're not talking about the personality flaws he brought with him.
You KNOW this.

3/ We know that the president did new a new foreign deal in office because he himself admitted it—on a financial disclosure report filed with federal ethics officials. You can see here that he sold $3.2M of land in the Dominican Republic on Jan. 29, 2018. https://t.co/U7r3VCiJPM
4/ Promise 2 of Trump’s ethics plan: He said he wasn’t going to talk about the business with his sons, Eric and Don Jr., who he put in charge of day-to-day operations. Doesn’t look like he kept that promise either.

Good to see the paper of record highlighting this important national news story that we’ve been covering at @theintercept for the past eight months.

In June, a trove of hacked law enforcement documents was posted online. I went through hundreds of those files to look at how law enforcement was treating antifa/anarchists vs groups on the far right.
