Trump endorses return of earmarks as House GOP weighs change
Earmarks. Boehner killed them and I thought everyone had come to realize that pet projects, for contributors back home, is the ultimate in fraud. Boehner said in his own campaign that if you want to elect someone to go rob the Treasury to bring back money just for us, vote for someone else.
How on Earth can people like Trump and Graham talk about draining the swamp when earmarks are the very definition of corruption on fiscal matters. I am worried this has some connection to infrastructure. Pretty outrageous.
