Rep. Josh Gottheimer On Kodak Deal: ‘Nothing About This Is Right’ | Stephanie Ruhle | MSNBC
The Republicans are still trying to play the market while a 1000 people die a day. Why am I not surprised?

Middleclassworker, read Lyndon Johnson’s famous quote, ” tell the lowest white man he’s better than the best black man, and you can pick his pocket. Give him someone to look down upon and he’ll empty his pocket for you “. Trump used racism and bigotry to create a cult of hate with himself as messiah. He feeds their hate, and gives them targets to hate. That’s their overriding motive, nothing more.
The sky is falling. Russia Russia Russia. May be we should all just sit around and wait for government handouts?? I trust the Democrats I mean after all, look at all the democrat ran cities like Chicago, New York, San Fran. Portland, Seattle and on and on. You do know why another stimulus bill hasn’t been agreed on right?? Because dems want bailout money for their failed cities and states.including my state of California. Fk that.
Mars Tru, you REALLY are a special kind of stupid. Two trillion of the first relief package went to multinational corporations and Wall Street. The additional bailout money wouldn’t be required if Trump had done his job in the first place, and if had just followed the experts and CDC guidelines. He’s still trying to politicize masks, rather than promoting them to cut transmission. The cities need the relief funds for police, fire emts, and essential services because Trump’s lack of coordination in the beginning drive the prices of equipment PPE and supplies forced states to bid against each other raising the prices up to ten times to normal price. If he had coordinated from the beginning, he would have kept the costs down. If he had accepted the offer of test kits from the WHO, we wouldn’t have delayed testing. Trump’s botched response at every juncture of this crisis has cost us money,time, and lives.
@Mars Tru Your comment clearly shows what type of person you are. You’d rather let people die than save lives and help those who suffer deeply from this pandemic and do not have the means to live through this crisis. A president is the leader of the country regardless. If Trump had taken the responsibility and the ownership as a leader, America with the best medical resources would have been on the right track by now. It still requires 10 days or more to get the test results back. We are in August now and that was how many days taken in March, so where is Mr. Trump and his plan for Covid-19 for these months? Do you know we are losing a human soul in America every 80 second due to Covid -19?!
Moscow Mitch and the GOP are the problem with this time
Just vote them all out.
I will vote against these bums, just like I did last time.
I need some help from others and we need Russia out of our elections.
@vincent james ✌👍😷
Donald Trump is the poor man’s idea of a rich man, and the idiot’s idea of a smart one.
😯
@White Jesus I prefer to look at it as spreading your prophetic wisdom. 🙂
@Lloyd Acton I’m good with it…..👍😃
Nice!
Lloyd acton is the liberals idea of a genius and to conservatives a dumbfuk.. Lmao.
…a loser’s idea of what a winner looks like.
The number one thing that needs to be in the relief bill?
RELIEF!!!
@JRod – USA is a 3rd world country.
@Full English Ummmm… no.
@Full English well not technically….a third world country is a non industrialized one, first world is industrialized and non communist, second world is communist and inductrialized. How about we are a banana republic?
@Dale Hartley – that does describe the reality of it very well. 👍
@Full English Trever Noah did a special where he showed Trump up as one of those African dictators…in full uniform and said how he is the exact same thing….Funny, very funny….hang on ill look it up
Here is the one I remember….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tKOV0KqPlg
But I found the earlier one from 2015 as well…and you should watch it too 🙂

Trevor was amazingly telling in his evaluation of Trump.
Of course it’s fraught with insider deals and shady financial dealings of Donald is involved…why is anyone acting surprised? Let’s get him out of office before the election. Why are we waiting around?
Wish we didn’t have to wait for November. The longer he’s there the more damage he does. Will take a long time to rebuild and clean up his mess.
@debbie duccini-day
If repulikkkans were real patriots, the country could RID itself of TRAITOR tRump and his sidekick Pence before the end of next week
Impeachment and removal should take less that 2 days!
The evidence is already there!
But that will never happen will it?
Because the Republicans would need to get President Putin’s permission FIRST!
Trump’s instinct is to exploit a crisis for profit. He is a born scammer.
@thom wessels for what
@thom wessels what makes you say this
@thom wessels whats he winning at
@Aunty Mammalia Winning. No country has more cases of covid19, more deaths, more unemployed, more economic disaster, more political turmoil more corruption….
Tremendous winning.
So much winning, people are getting SICK of it.
@Jack Boot Omg lol you are hilarious!I did not expect this kind of answer!Thanks for making me laugh but with much guilt because of all the sadness.
Insider trading and stock value manipulation.
What else is new. Crooked is as Crooked does.
The Republican Party should not be forgiven for the ditch they have driven your economy into with their greed, corruption and incompetence…
Why is anyone surprised? Shady dealings during a pandemic yet nickel and diming the american people…that’s the republican way.
Republicans aren’t surprised, they knew trump was the key to this whole scam. The sole reason they’re aiding and abetting his corruption because they are too. What about the “decent thinking” Republicans who believed themselves to be the party of family values, maybe they’ve woken up but I fear they may be too dim-witted to.
Then let’s vote the CORRUPT REPUBLICANS OUT —-ALL OF THEM!
@Mary Monroy I’m not American so my opinion is moot, but yes I agree.

Change starts at the ballot box………..Vote !
Just imagine if this was Hillary of Obama that had done this?????
They would scream bloody murder on Fox News
No kidding they drug out the so called Benghazi hearings for months the same with white water but not a peep about Trump, how many improper things have we seen, how much will we come to see , Trump’s emboldened after the impeachment debacle, hey he learned his lesson, just ask Susan Collins, WTF 😂😂😡😡😡😡
Democrats are 10 times more principled than republicans. Republicans get outraged when people kneel, during the national anthem. Then condone this.
Fun Fact: The CEO of Kodak received 1.75 million shares three days before t’rump’s announcement, which made him over $100 million when the stock went from $2 to a high of $60.
So while you all are struggling to put food on the table, republican insiders are making bank off your suffering.
And how much of a kickback is Chump getting? You know he & that CEO were in cahoots before that $765m loan was issued. Why else would Don The Con have chosen a film company to suddenly start making drugs?
This is the kind of crap that trump is doing whilst he keeps us chasing his ludicrous antics and behavioral issues and their manifestations. VOTE BLUE!!! TheBluesHealAmerica
Wow Kodak! Who would thought America didn’t have companies that make drugs that they had to give kodak 750 mill to help them produce drugs? 🙄🙄
Maybe they can take pictures of vaccines and take the photos, or a big Trump donor owes a bunch of Kodak stock
@Todd Daniel — more likely Jared, Ivanka and the rest of that corrupt family owns the stock
@Mdlclass Worker never know that is for sure
Everything Trump and this administration does is dishonest. Why is anyone surprised?
Trump 2020. America needs him more than ever.
Everything liberals say proves what idiots they are. Conservatives want relief for out of work americans and pelosi wants bail outs for failed democrat policies in blue states including my state of California. Fk that.
Bet all the Kushner and Trump felon seeds got lots of kodac stock for their portfolios. Start the slime young
@William Marick Trumpy can only pass a cognitive test designed for the developmently disabled lol.
@Mars Tru You mean like the 870 million relief package conservatives wanted to give airlines like Delta who blew 4 blilion on stock buy backs or the hundreds of millions they wanted to give to the “essential” cruise ship industry? Let’s not talk about the payroll tax cut being pushed which benefits corporation and hurts Medicare or the fact that as of this second, with 40 million out of work, your conservatives are holding the relief bill hostage in order to get millions for their corporate cronies at the expense of the working class. Need I even bring up the Kodak deal? You are from California? Put down the crack pipe and educate yourself on the issues before making dumb comments.
A thousand bucks says Trump Jr and crew bought Kodak stock before the announcement
lol, i would love to have a thousand to make that bet as well….but Im poor lol 😉 However as long as it is Theoretical (fake) money 🙂 i will second that bet.
This all started in January right after the Republicans refused to remove him from office because he’d learned his lesson
@Dale Hartley It is actually fake money, it’s fiat!
Makes you wonder how big a piece of this deal did trump*** get for himself?
Probably nothing. Kushner, Mnuchin, Don Jr. et al probably made big bank.
Maybe Kodak has trumps pee pics and he is using tax dollars to pay them off.
“There’ll be so much treason, you’ll get sick of it. You’ll say Mr President please no more treason.”
He sure is making HIS America great. Folks we have to stop him. Vote
