Analysis: President Trump's intervention with the FDA and the lucrative contract awarded to Battelle are the latest exhibits of how and why he sees oversight as a political enemy.

His detractors are horrified by the situation, but his loyalists see his roughshod run over competing power centers as the proper exercise of power by a just president.

The lack of oversight means voters will have less information by which to judge the president when they go to the polls. Trump surely understands that.

CROOKED, BLOATED TRUMP. NEW 'TRUE' LEADERSHIP IS NEEDED. KICK TRUMP OUT OF THE OVAL OFFICE NOV 2020!!!

HOW,HOW,HOW can this be allowed? That would be like a CEO of a company getting rid of the Board of Directors so he could rob the company blind.

Cleaning masks seems like a fairly straightforward process for which Batelle had a way to do. In the middle of a crisis there is little time to study and evaluate; you have to go with what you’ve got. The President’s Task Force acted quickly, what they’re for. NBC News lies again

POTUS is not a king, monarch, tsar, or dictator. He does not have all-encompassing powers even within the executive branch. He governs - not rules. Oversight in the executive branch that doesn't answer to each dept head or the president, helps to ensure we remain a democracy.

Its ALL about monetizing everything in the Trump Era. Shameful, but that word does not exist in the Trump lexicon.

Crooked donny. Lock him up.

The demonic spirit called FROWARD is on full display in America. This demon spirit is stubbornly difficult and ornery simply for the sake of being difficult & ornery. MAGA2020 TrumpGolfsYouDie

If you think NBC is news, you’re not thinking.

Any answer i FIND satisfactory i will send 100 bucks to : the DNC is SO ADAMANT ABOUT abortion/ murder but YET so ADAMANT about 'saving lives' as well in current CV19 = is this NOT A CONUNDRUM OF CONUNDRUMS. CNN KellyO DanScavino realDonaldTrump greggutfeld JesseBWatters

Here ya go,do your job FakeNewsMedia YouCantStopUs wwg1wga JusticeIsComing

Do you have any idea how long it takes to consummate a government contract? It's the same reason Halliburton received no bid contracts in Iraq.

Totally unacceptable and insane

NBC News freaks out over every story about Russian collusion and refuses to report on FBI malfeasance

Trump is the epitome of the swamp. His blind followers think that deep state is responsible for all of these back room deals. Trump is the swamp.

He can do that now. He can do ANYTHING he wants now. He can’t be stopped. This is what we’ve done to ourselves.

Yer

Because he's a crook. TrumpCrimeFamily

Here we see that the actions of this president are counter to the good interests of not only the US but are also environmentally affecting the rest of the world, the promotion of oil, gas, and oil exploration, deregulation water quality, reduction of fuel standards.Dictator trump

Well if he doesn’t like oversight, then he won’t like when We the People, the biggest oversight committee vote his fat ass out

KenDilanianNBC In supporting Trump, it’s as if Republicans want people to die, especially certain people. I guess they truly don’t care, at all. Sad for everyone.

The US Treasury is Trump's personal cookie jar... it has been since the first day he took office

Because he can’t cheat if someone is watching him 😼

Men who have something to hide, will, naturally, HATE any and all oversight!

Grifters

At some point what Trump has been doing will have a serious negative impact on his supporters but by the time they figure out they have been supporting their own demise, it will be to late.

Oh please. Folks were panicking: do something, anything. Trump did what he had to do to move many paralle fixes forward quickly - oversight is slow. Your next story will be about how he didn’t move fast enough. You R clown

How does he get away with this Rhetorical question.

7 months until Biden

'Jobs for the boys' Will oversight be achieved in November 2020?

That picture makes him look like a mountain of fat.

Thanks NBC.

There are too many pictures of Trumps face on the internet. Can't we replace his head with a creepy pumpkin head?

If only you were this vigilant when Obama was president.

More incendiary, worthless anti-Trump CRAP. We can depend on you every day for this.

And child molestation is not a concern to you? This news you deployed should not even exist and Trump should have stepped down and face his accusers. Now you know why he was investigated while he was a candidate.

Or perhaps governmental oversight has reached the point where we can’t respond as quickly as we need to - fine balance between protecting people and being nimble

Can you STOP with the Trump hate?! So tired of it

Oversight and scrutiny: the two things POTUS45 is most afraid of

“Oversight?!?! You mean a process to monitor all the grifting and inside dealing we are doing that would resemble a third-world country? That is ridiculous! Please go watch my propaganda news station. “ realDonaldTrump TrumpGrifter.

or maybe the corruption

If you don't like president Trump, maybe you deserve a president like XJP.

Your Hypocrisy is palpable he sees the most corrupt bureaucracy ever and he realizes the deep state has many facets. You spent 3 yrs. lying he was a russian spy. You watch now as the truth is unfolding and you stay silent. You prove his point. You have no credibility on this.

Can you clowns post one real news story? You turned your fake news network into a 24/7 attack ad. fakenewspig

Trump gutted the checks on his power when they were most neededAnalysis: Trump&39;s intervention with the FDA and the lucrative contract awarded to Battelle are the latest exhibits of how and why he sees oversight as a political enemy. No checks on his power were, or are, needed. Well, if he can gut them, then they aren’t really check, are they? Well he has gone bankrupt numerous times, failed in the casino business, Trump Airlines, Trump Vodka, Trump Steaks, Trump University - failures. If he had checks in place then he may have succeeded in those ventures and not needed to have the US bankroll him. Just saying.
