2024 No More Trump, No More Biden


This independent voter wants to know why politicians have classified documents in their homes, cars, storage facilities and offices.  Presidents Trump and Biden, as well as Vice President Pence, have all had classified documents where they should not have been.  

Both political teams look stupid defending their guys while attacking the opposite team for doing likewise.

A second area where political parties suck is government ethics.  The Red Team defended President Donald Trump's cash franchise Trump Hotel in downtown D.C.  

The glittering Trump International Hotel housed and entertained numerous Republican officials, candidates and lawmakers throughout the Trump presidency, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Once Trump sold the hotel the Red Team took their money elsewhere:

An Insider examination of FEC records show that the GOP has spent just under $2,000 there since Trump handed over the lease. That accounted for the hotel stays of four Republicans, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert.

That's a far cry from the at least $670,000 spent by GOP officials, candidates and PACs at the hotel throughout the same five-month period in 2018 — not including revenue from bars and restaurants (including these, CREW placed the total spend at $867,000).

Both periods cover the busy midterm campaign seasons for their respective years.

The Blue Team expressed concern over wealthy citizens or foreign governments spending money at the Trump hotel to influence White House policy.  The Red Team personally enriched Trump via his D.C. hotel.

Now that Joe Biden is in the White House  that same concern could apply Hunter Biden's art.  A former White House ethics official raised concerns about this arrangement.  

Former President Obama's ethics chief Walter Shaub ripped into the first son's art venture last year during an appearance on Law & Crime’s "Objections" podcast.

"There is simply no way an artist who has never even juried into a community center art fair is going to suddenly show up in New York selling art for half a million a pop," Shaub said. "Let's talk about the magnitude of this. . . . That’s $6.5 million going to the president’s son for being the president’s son, not for being an artist, and I just think that’s absolutely appalling."

Can Donald Trump and Joe Biden take their improperly stored classified documents and challenged ethics and please leave come 2024?  Please.
