Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Beyond everything else, the fact that Donald Trump made so little money off the White House is staggering to me.
He could have gotten $50 billion from the Saudis on Inauguration Day if he'd had the balls to demand it.
He wouldn't have had to change any policies or make any new laws, just tell them that it was what it was.
Small-time player. Terrible at making deals.

BTW, Trump pretty much gave away the farm to his co-author. Schwartz got full credit and half the profits, unheard of for a ghost writer. Schwartz also left Trump's circle after the book came out and has bad mouthed him ever since.
It wasn't titled "Art of the Great Deal".
Yeah, but he somehow marketed the hell out of it. It was somewhere down in the top 100 of the reading list before college.
I think in the beginning he was testing the waters to see what he could get away with. He got more brazen as he got to the end of his term.
He never went for the big bucks. Think of it this way; $10 million wouldn't buy an apartment in Trump Tower.
Couldn’t pay me $10M to live in a building with that fuck’s name on it. Hope they’ll all ashamed of their address.
