Have just read Mark Elias democracy docket outlining basically how millions of voters will not be voting in any future elections because of the unconstitutional attack on voting, I have no hope for the future at all and every time I see the piece of shit my heart wants to explode But another part of me wants to do something else😡

... a balance sheet and can actually add and subtract.

for about thirty seconds, just long enough for Trump to declare that the cost was up to 3.1 billion. Then the video was cut off. The part where Powell points out Trump is wrong was not shown.

Unbelievable. Walter Cronkite is doing whirlies in his grave. ABC did show the entire clip. CBS should be ashamed.

Here's what I saw:

Powell knew a set up was coming. He even looked annoyed at having to be there.

The building is being re-habbed and not with taxpayer money (they didn't say where the money was coming from, but I am checking that). Trump was trying to make it look like there was a cost overrun because of Powell's handling, since it is the Federal Reserve. That's why he was there was Scott. He was trying to make it look like he was calling Powell out for mismanagement.

If you notice what Scott says, he barely understands his part in the poorly conceived facade. He stumbles over his words and expresses himself very clumsily.

Powell, on the other hand, can barely tolerate being with this crass asshole trump, and immediately begins correcting trump by shaking his head in disagreement as trump tries to create this appearance that there is an even more substantial cost overrun that the supposed amount cited by Scott in the beginning.

It takes Powell about 2 seconds to see what trump is doing, and he explains that to the cameras by saying that he's added another building into the mix! "You just added in a third building is what that is." The look of disgust on his face is palpable.

Trump then stupidly says, " "It's a building that's being built." Now WTF is that supposed to mean?
Answer: a big fat nothing because trump is to stupid to respond when he's caught in the act of trying to cast aspersions on somone like Powell.

I like the way Powell treats trump because it's the same way the Canadian prime minister, Carney, treats him: with thinly veiled contempt and a very distinct overtone that trump is a waste of time that he wishes he didn't have to deal with.

How about a new word - crasshole.

How many projects has Trump has with cost overruns? How much did he lose on converting the DC post office into a luxury hotel, which he sold to Waldorf Astoria.

didn't ask Powell to cheat the contractors out of their money to cut costs .

used for the Fed project, or am I mistaken. Doesn't the Federal Reserve have its own budget?

The Fed budget comes from a portion of the interest paid on the government securities it holds. The rest of that money goes to the U.S. Treasury.

The "third building" would have been completed late in Trump's first term as President. That is what makes it so damning.

In other words, that building was constructed during Trump's first term.

Bravo, Chairman Powell!

He seems touchy about his mental decline. Let's throw it at him every chance we get.

Very expressive reaction to a crazy rambling imbecile.

It will not go unnoticed in the Spite Haus.

Steven Miller’s gonna put poor Powell back on the chopping block.
