“Any foreign adversary seeking to buy a President knows the price,” warns Rep. Sean Casten
A Democrat who sits on the House Financial Services Committee warned that former President Donald Trump’s inability to secure a bond for his $464 million fraud judgment makes him a “massive national security risk.”
Trump’s lawyers in a filing on Monday told a New York appeals court that he cannot secure a bond after approaching 30 underwriters.
“The amount of the judgment, with interest, exceeds $464 million, and very few bonding companies will consider a bond of anything approaching that magnitude,” the attorneys wrote.
The filing quoted an insurance broker who signed an affidavit stating that securing the bond is a “practical impossibility.”
I mean I agree.
I also think that we could do away with primaries and parties together, then put together a list of qualifications for all the available elected positions; each voter is required to when registering to list their qualifications; then at random we select a pool of potential applicants for a given campaign cycle. We then vote on the candidates and decide. Public office shouldn’t be a career, it should be a civic obligation like jury duty. Unless you have a valid reason to not hold office, welp, if your number comes up…
I’d buy a lottery ticket for the chance to become president for a term.
I mainly just don’t think that the majority of leaders are remotely qualified, nor do I think a career of seeking power qualifies you to wield it.
I’d rather you were President (so long as you meet some minimum qualifications).
My penis is 37.5mm long.
It that long enough?
I mean its not the qualification I would lead with, its fine.
Presidents can have a little penis, as a treat.
