President Donald Trump and his allies have repeated ad nauseam that he froze congressionally approved military aid to Ukraine because of his staunch determination to weed out corruption in the Ukrainian government, not to pressure Ukraine into helping his political campaign.
Let’s be clear - he’s not against HIS corruption.
He’s against EVERYONE ELSE’S corruption. He’s just fine with his own.
Trump is very concerned about corruption if he can’t get his piece of the action.
“I had to defund them. If I didn’t, they might have caught wind of Rudy’s back-channel to the Ukrainian president.”
Oh c’mon. You can’t POSSIBLY expect Donnie to be consistent, can you? He is a lying joke. The question is how long we will allow it to happen by being distracted by morons in Congress storming the ramparts and Trump tweeting nonsense ad nauseam?
The antics of Trump and his minions (including GOP Congressmen) will edge his “Impeach and Remove From Office” polling closer to 60%.
Gaetz and his Crew are not helping Trump, and they are certainly not helping themselves.
Gve them a break. Who doesn’t act like a bunch of idiots when standing on the tracks, watching the train heading straight for them? They had plenty of opportunity to step away, but nah. They will have to live with their decisions.
Donald J. Trump and his Merry Band of Conservative Butthole Suckers are nothing but the muck on the floor of The Dark on “Super Natural.” This is worse than the black ooze of the Leviathans. We are talking lowest of the low.
Regarding fighting corruption, those who can do, those that can’t become president and cut the funding to root it out.
Don’t forget the approval rating. No one gets elected with less than 50% approval.
Increasingly I think this is the reason for much of what we’re seeing. They don’t have the instincts of roaches—the kitchen light is fully blazing away and they stand in it unable to process anything.
Misleading article. Trump’s been trying to cut funding for anti-corruption because he’s making it more efficient by giving each affected country a targeted list of people for them to investigate.
That way they don’t have to expend resources hunting down other crooks in their countries who may not have anything to do with the trumps.
Unless their corruption helps his corruption.

24. Alexei Ivanov: Real creep. “Donated” $400,000 to the Trump Org for me in 2008 and now he wants a return on his “investment.”
25. Pytor Illyvich: Loser. Visited Mar-a-Lago as a guest and wouldn’t say Melania was the hottest.
…
No he’s not against “every one else’s” corruption. He is all for it, actually. Because, guess what, it can be great kompromat.
What throws him, really, is when other people aren’t corrupt. He literally does not get it, and that applies to both business and politics.
He “knows” that everybody has their David Pecker, holding embarrassing details in a safe somewhere. Because everybody’s just like him.
So if he’s cutting the funding for these programs where does he want it redirected, or walled off from what?
What, you don’t? Funny, because I’ve got some pics that your spouse might be interested in…
I think you’ve got me confused with some other sparrowhawk. Last I checked, I didn’t have a spouse. And of course, it’s not in a safe, it’s on an encrypted harddrive that’s never been connected to the Internet.
…That’s the other surprise I have in the safe for you…
