A tweet from our "conservative" president.

That’s pretty “ conservative “ and a great example of capitalism . I would expect a “ liberal “ president get all emotional and choked about the whole idea of a business going under from producing a poor product . One thing is for sure , somebody that does produce a better product will take their spot .

Maybe the "Weekly Liar" or "This Week in Rich White Guy Criminality" would be good replacements.

I'm old enough to remember when the Weekly Standard was viewed as an influential conservative magazine. And today Trump trashed it as it folded. Why is that?

And it was successful and resonated with conservatives then. But in current times it’s viewership and revenue has dramatically dropped. Why is that?

I'm not asking how much money it made or didn't make. I'm asking why an allegedly "conservative" president would pile on and call the conservative publication "pathetic." Not to mention the fact that a number of Americans lost their jobs at Christmas time.

Bill Kristol probably criticized President Grifter at one time or another. Being petty, childish, and vindictive, the Grifter decided to tweet about it.

Secretary of the Interior, Ryan Zinke, is headed for the exit... That was predictable once Democrats won the House. He doesn't have the guts to stick around to be subpoenaed or the integrity to withstand legitimate scrutiny by a thorough investigation.

What a substantive retort... Wow, you really put me in my place. Is this ethics probe into Zinke also humorous?

* In June, the inspector general opened an investigation into Zinke's land deal with David J. Lesar, the chairman of Halliburton, an oil services company whose operations are directly affected by Interior Department policies. The deal included plans for a hotel, retail shops and a microbrewery that were partially backed by a foundation previously headed by Zinke and now headed by Zinke's wife. The inspector general's probe is focusing on "involvement in and use of taxpayer resources to advance land developments" and whether or not Zinke improperly spent taxpayer money for travel for the deal.

Zinke is not as swampy as Scott Pruitt, but he came close. Now, watch as a lobbyist will be tapped to replace Zinke, just as a lobbyist replaced Pruitt.

Again... you are so clever. How about these assorted ethics probes into Ryan Zinke, genius?

* Potential Hatch Act violations by Zinke... Zinke announced that Florida would be exempt from the Trump administration's plans for an offshore drilling expansion alongside Florida Governor Rick Scott at a January press conference. Watchdog groups immediately deemed the announcement an attempt to boost Scott's expected Senate run. Reports in following months found evidence that Trump administration officials had planned for Scott's victory. OSC confirmed in April that it had opened a file on the issue.

* The Interior Department blocked a casino project proposed by two Native American tribes, the Mohegan and Mashantucket Pequot, after Zinke met with lobbyists from MGM resorts, who opposed the Native American casinos. The rejection was later found to be against the advice of federal experts from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. In a lawsuit, the tribes said the decision "was the product of improper political influence." The Inspector General is also conducting this investigation.

* A National Park Service report deleted any mention of humanity's role in climate change shortly after Zinke testified to Congress that he would not censor scientific reports. Once again, the Inspector General is conducting an investigation.

Anything to offer besides "LOL"? I didn't think so... it's the standard response from someone who wants to say something... but isn't truly articulate enough to form a rebuttal of any substance.

I'm not afraid. I don't think 400 such settlements exist, but to the extent there was legitimate misconduct, let's hear about it.

Who is the caretaker of these supposed settlements? Are they all sitting in a basement vault?

You know how dirty DC is no matter what side. Even if there's only a 100 I'm sure they're protected like classified material.
