Republicans meeting at Trump's resort.

House Republicans are in Florida today for their annual retreat as they try to narrow down what policies to package together to address President Donald Trump’s ambitious legislative agenda.

The three-day strategy session will take place at Trump’s Doral resort in Miami, and the president is expected to speak to attendees Monday.

OP - Of course, they’re probably paying inflated rates for rooms and conference center. The most important policy of the Trump Administration is the opportunity for grifting. It’s always about the grift, job one.

Since the Supreme Court gave him immunity, the Emoluments Clause is not enforced, and with unchecked pardon powers, I expect that this will be the most corrupt administration in the nation’s history.

They're there to kiss the ring and then go on a bunch of Fox News shows selling the Trump lifestyle brand. It's sickening. MAGA Congress people aren't representatives. They're glorified Fox News content creators. They don't represent us, they represent the best interests of Rupert Murdoch and Donald Trump.
