TREMENDOUS AMOUNTS

 “After the U.S. military’s capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro last weekend, Trump told NBC News that he believes the U.S. oil industry could get expanded operations “up and running” in the country in less than 18 months.

“I think we can do it in less time than that, but it’ll be a lot of money,” he said. “A tremendous amount of money will have to be spent and the oil companies will spend it, and then they’ll get reimbursed by us or through revenue.” (MS NOW)

“A tremendous amount of money,” so says Trump. Now that tremendous amount of money Trump is once again anticipating spending, of course, ain’t coming from his wallet, you know, like the Trump Ballroom, or the Trump Arch in Washington, or the Trump invasion of Venezuela, or the anticipated Trump annexing of Greenland, or the Trump classification of Naval Battleships…NOPE, any money being spent on all of those Trump narcissistic and sadistic projects will be coming from the taxpayer.

But ya’ notice, when it comes to health care, groceries, shelter, welfare, social programs, there AIN’T NO tremendous amount of taxpayer money available to spend. But ya’ notice whenever Trump is not somehow the recipient of honor, or financial gain, there ain’t no tremendous amount of money to be had.

I believe Trump believes the US Treasury is his private bank account. And I believe, so far, Trump’s Congress (yes, he now owns that) has little problem in letting Trump have it all!
