Report: Trump Has Chosen His Secretary of State

[Grandpa mac]

You mean like a Secretary of State that solicits millions in contributions to her sham "charity" then makes political decisions that favor the donors?

Because I'm pretty sure that's a crime.

Didn't vote for her either. Let's just not pretend it is criminal when one side does it and good diplomacy when the other side does it (sorta like the way both Colin Powell and Hillary used private email to hide their SofS business from Congress, but General Powell seems to have gotten a pass on it).

Um...they are basically on the same side...

It takes a mountain money to fix our roads...too bad those tax dollars are being used elsewhere.

That's certainly true!

Here is a pallet of our tax dollars being unloaded in Iran...

Scenario
Gas station buys a gallon of gas at $2 and sells for $3
Gas station profit = 10.0 cents
Federal tax. = 18.4 cents
State & Local tax = 71.6 cents
Cost from wholesaler = 2.00
Total = 3.00

It's official the announcement just came in......Rex Tillerson is the official choice!

It's the fact that he and Putin are BFF's that worries people. His company does billions of business with Russia- you certain his actions as Secretary of State won't be influences by his personal investments? Cuz that is a crime.

So a successful businessman at retirement age with a substantial personal portfolio is a more potential threat of being corrupt than a typical politician whose career has been backed by lobby groups and special interest donors to whom said politician owes favors?:rolleyes

Are you that naive or just ate up with trying to discredit Trump?

I'm beginning to see why the Bern could be accepted by so many. They feel because he's got jack shit and hates capitalism, he's potentially more honest. Sadly he's just the opposite and the theory is seriously flawed.

I'll take my chances with the smart successful business savvy person with stable personal financials every time over the lifetime politician earning from being in office and prone to taking advantage of what comes under their responsibilities to the office......Though you discount Kerry and Clinton, they're the poster children of graft and prime examples of why I think the way I've stated above.

Seems as though you've hit the nail on the head

Tard logic, successful businessman bad, socialist dictators good.
