serial loser donald frump, with a proven track record on HUGE government waste and expense ( see GOLF trips ) lurches into
satire with his visit to a building site with the usual farago of lies in his hand
When Trump paused before reporters to make a statement, he beckoned Powell over to stand next to him on camera. The president then claimed that the total cost of the renovations to the Federal Reserve buildings was $3.1bn, a higher figure than had previously been reported.
As Trump made this claim, Powell nodded his head no, to signal his disagreement.
“I’m not aware of that,” Powell said. “I haven’t heard that from anybody at the Fed.”
Trump insisted that this new figure “just came out” and removed papers from his coat, as apparent proof, and handed them to Powell.
“This came from us?” Powell asked.
After Trump said that the new figures had come from his people, Powell discovered why the figure for the renovation was suddenly much larger. “You included a third building,” he said.
Trump insisted that the third building was part of the total cost of the renovation he has accused Powell of mismanaging in an effort to find some cause to remove the independent Fed chairman who has refused to lower interest rates at the president’s request.
The third building Trump suddenly claimed is part of the renovation, Powell explained, “was built five years ago. It’s not new.”
Trump was flanked by his staunch ally, Republican senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, who also suggested that the renovations had gone too far over budget.
Powell, asked if they expected any further cost overruns, replied, “Don’t expect them” but said that the independent central bank was “ready for them” if necessary.
Trump then called on a friendly reporter, who asked him what, as a builder, he “would do with a project manager who is over budget”.
“Generally speaking, ”Trump said, “I’d fire him.”

‘South Park’s most furious episode ever’: the jaw-dropping Satanic takedown of Donald Trump
They’ve depicted the president’s privates. They’ve shown him in flagrante with the devil. The makers of the foul-mouthed US cartoon have certainly thrown down the gauntlet …
