    They literally carved out a special exemption for Trump in this law. What is he even complaining about?

    Guess it’s never enough for orange in charge.

      GOP senators had been working with the White House on the stock trade bill, and some supported a broad carve-out to exclude the president from the ban, but it failed, with Hawley joining Democrats to block it.

      Looks like the carve out failed because Hawley and Democrats blocked it. That’s probably why he’s actually upset with Hawley. Tbh I’d be fine with the carve out of it actually helped the bill pass, it’s not like trump really has any qualms with breaking the law.

        Hopefully that black shriveled thing he calls a heart gives up and we don’t have to endure more. I was really hoping with the whole Epstein thing it may happen but I guess not.

          As we have seen with Dick Cheney, they can just give him a new one. I would hope for an aneurysm, but I suspect a braindead Trump being puppeted with some sort of implant chip, and controlled by a first gen LLM, might be more coherent than he currently is.
