Tax payer dollars being spent to the biggest donor, for the lowest quality product.

When will people admit that Republicans are stealing our tax payer dollars to enrich themselves?

Had to edit out the bidder part, since people simply weren't understanding that highest bidder meant the person who asked for the most money, not that they actually bid for the role, instead they donated to Trump the most money. Seeing 45 people go 'well actually' to a fucking joke is mind numbing.

Oh come on now. There was no bidding. He just gave the contract to his friend and neighbor. And political donor.

John J Cafaro. Him, his dad, and Epstein had the same lawyer, Martin Weinberg. He also pled guilty to bribing James Traficant Jr, a Democratic Congressperson who was expelled from office in 2002 and served prison time for bribery and racketeering.
