Corruption

The Trump administration is looking to foreign countries for corruption to investigate. He need not look any further than his own administration, and family. Trump likes to brag about his “America First Agenda” but yet he buys all his products and supplies from foreign countries, the same as his daughter does. His son-in-law runs slum rentals that are rat infested to the poor and collects subsidized rent from the Government. God only knows what other crooked deals his family is involved in.
