Blowfly's are attracted to shit. This administration is full of blowfly's that are attracted to that POS sitting behind the desk of the president.

Hardly the picture of health. His mind is just as unhealthy, too.
I would move to a table across the room if I walked into a diner and he was there or leave--he looks like things might start hopping off.

reputation would or could join. Gang members usually have to commit some awful deed in order to join up. They SO deserve each other. And in the end they rat on each other. Gang members support each other-----until the don't.

a counter-balance to the president's whims, excesses, and disastrous instincts. Mattis may be one. I' pretty sure there are others. They leak information to warn the public when Trump does stuff that needs to be reported.

Anyone who would work for Trump or be associated with his business operations, especially at this juncture in his life, already knows what kind of person he is and what kind of business he does. Unless you HAVE to work with him (I.E. Democratic politicians, People who worked for NBC on the Apprentice, etc...) you are choosing to work for a man with no moral compass with a well documented history of racial discrimination and bigotry, sexism and misogyny, and uncountable other failings. What kind of person chooses to work for someone like that? People who either support, or at least do not mind that kind of environment. In other words, horrible disgusting people.

But it seems as if perhaps this is exactly part of their ‘extreme vetting’ process in itself; that they need to know their people have dark secrets that they will try and protect through desperate and possibly illegal acts.

It isn’t so surprising and this kind of ‘you need my silence so you’ll protect me’ safeguarding is the kind of thing that you might find in any organized crime family, street gang or syndicate.

Trump looks for human garbage like Manafort, Bannon, Miller etc to hire because he's garbage and needs garbage to do his heinous acts for him, so he can stay out of trouble while keeping up that pathetic royal billionnaire genius facade.

If they're not complete garbage to begin with, he'll require them to lose all peronal integrity, moral duty and become craven toxic sociopaths (like him) if they want to stay.

That's true of his supporters,i.e. fellow Americans, too. If they weren't that way start, that's where they end up.

I just saw "The Confidence Man" on Netflix and Trump turned decent instructors into Trump University ripoff artists conning the elderly into paying $35,000 for seminars promising wealth, personal instruction from "the master", etc etc that never happened.
Its all a ruse. He takes upwards of 50 million and settles the lawsuit for 25 million.

Which is no excuse for their behavior since they could leave, like Yates, etc.
