Can we say CORRUPTION

Is there ANYONE in Trump’s staff or cabinet who doesn’t have their clients or their own pocks as their first priority?!? What a bunch of slimy rats!!

Don’t you know, that’s why he’s there.

I can’t believe anyone just believes this. Talk about a hit piece

Sounds like how Senator Boxer funneled so much business to her husband’s company

More trump administration corruption.

MS 45 strikes again

Most corrupt administration ever!!!

realDonaldTrump so much for draining the swamp. You have filled the swamp with swamp monsters destroying our country.

CNN (DNC) is really pushing the anti-GOP stories now that their Trump/Russia conspiracy theories have fallen flat. 😂

Par for the course for Trump’s cabinet of corruption.

A lobbyist in a government position making policies. That is far beyond sad. That's a crime.

Selling our country to the highest bidder. Trump isn’t a conservative. He’s a con man.

They also happen to benefit the American people.
