Trump offers 'large sums' for exclusive access to coronavirus vaccine



As Americans have known for the last three years and the wider world is now seeing.  Donald Trump's narcissism, lack of empathy and greed knows no bounds.  Unlike all previous occupiers of the Oval Office, Donald Trump refused to divest his business interests or place them in a blind trust.  Instead he, from his first day in office was in violation of the constitutions emolument clause which clearly states elected and government officials cannot profit from government contracts during their time in office.   

Noting the headline: Trump wants exclusive access to coronavirus  vaccine.  To believe that he, Donald Trump is doing this for truly  altruistic reasons would be complete folly.  His concern for Americans beings and ends with how to increase his and his families wealth. 


German government tries to fight off aggressive takeover bid by US, say reports
The Trump administration has offered a German medical company “large sums of money” for exclusive access to a Covid-19 vaccine, German media have reported.
The German government is trying to fight off what it sees as an aggressive takeover bid by the US, the broadsheet Die Welt reports, citing German government circles.
The US president had offered the Tübingen-based biopharmaceutical company CureVac “large sums of money” to gain exclusive access to their work, wrote Die Welt.
According to an anonymous source quoted in the newspaper, Trump was doing everything to secure a vaccine against the coronavirus for the US, “but for the US only”.

Don't "Worry" Donald Trump Is Heading For The Oval Office

With today's Electoral College vote Donald Trump is now officially the winner of the 2016 election for president. In his case that would be demouge in chief.  Even though he is wholly unqualified to hold said office, with a complete lack of governing experience, lacking in knowledge has to how government actually works,  couldn't tell how policy is created or implemented or have any understanding  of foreign policy he still gets to be the most powerful person on the planet.  

Upon ascending to the oval office he'll be in violation of the emoluments clause of the Constitution due to his business interests throughout the world. Conversely once he's taken the oath of office his lease with the U.S. government he signed for the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C. located in the old post office building clearly states that no elected or government offical maybe the lease holder.   This is Donald Trump, who believes that laws and ethics rules simply don't apply to him.

America has a new commander in chief. Who's a racist, a misogynist, religious bigot, homophobic, xenophobic,  narcissistic with a complete lack of self control where criticisms of actions are concerned.  Just think this thin skinned moron will have the world at war simply because he felt slighted by some comment or criticism of him.    



The Electoral College formalized Donald Trump's election victory on Monday despite protests around the country to encourage GOP electors to abandon the Republican.
The president-elect easily racked up the 270 electoral votes needed to send him to the White House. Interest in the normally mundane voting process spiked this year as opposition to Trump continues to fester, fueled by Clinton's success in capturing over 2.6 million more votes than her Republican opponent.
Anti-Trump protesters descended on state capitols throughout the U.S. in a last-ditch effort to persuade so-called "faithless electors" in states Trump won to change their vote. Many of the Republicans casting ballots said they were inundated with calls and emails urging them to dump Trump.
