Trump's signing statement on sanctions boils down to "Fuck you, Congress, I'll do what I want."

Actual quote: "I built a truly great company worth many billions of dollars...I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress."

But President Donald Trump is nominating judges — filling a record number of judicial vacancies — who could make that less likely. Trump recently nominated Thomas Farr, a lawyer who defended the North Carolina legislature’s redistricting map and its 2013 voter suppression law, to be a federal judge.

When the courts are gone, and they will be in a few months, it wont matter what we do anymore.

It is over at that point.

Should be required, by ACTUAL law, to provide rock-solid proof that his company is worth that amount.

Republicans...you are killing your country with candidates like Trump. Could you possibly CHECK them, before you WRECK your country?

The world is watching.
