Trump Is Turning America into Another Bankrupt Casino

we can all agree to this.

Snip of Article:

When Donald Trump was running for president, he told voters he would run the country like he ran his business. Two years later, it’s one of the few promises he’s actually kept. Family members are doing jobs they’re not remotely qualified for. Corruption and self-dealing are a regular feature of life inside the administration. Trump is surrounded not by the “best,” but by the dumbest people. And, like his Taj Mahal casino—along with all the other businesses that ultimately went bust—the nation’s debt is soaring under the genius businessman’s tutelage, a situation that has become significantly more precarious as his pointless shutdown reaches its 19th day.

... old son came up with this theory.

I'm thinking he's looking at too much Maddow and he might be right.

what a bright boy.

Tell him he is correct, your son will get it when someone does something illegally and trying to hide he will quickly want people to be distracted by something else.
