Trump Media

It appears that Devin Nunes was amply rewarded for his steadfast support
of Donald J. Trump during the first impeachment proceeding.

"Trump Media’s CEO, Devin Nunes, was awarded an eight-digit pay package last year,
compensation that vastly exceeded the company’s total revenue. As a multiple of the company’s revenue,
Nunes’ compensation greatly exceeded that of the CEO of any comparable company."

My goodness, Trump Media’s spokeswoman didn't seem to appreciate the author's questioning.
Her response exemplifies laughably predictable inanity believed by few people outside of the MAGA
media ecosystem!

"When I asked Trump Media’s spokeswoman about Nunes’ compensation relative to the company’s revenue,
I got the following email: 'Transparent hit pieces like this one, arguing that it’s a scandal that Trump Media
tries to pay its officers competitive salaries based on recommendations and approvals by compensation consultants, board members, lawyers, and others, are laughably predictable inanities that are read by few people and believed by even fewer.'”

@FD1000,
Since you are so deeply entangled within the MAGA media ecosystem, what are your thoughts?
I look forward to reading your reasoned, well-researched explanation for this extraordinary situation!

    'Transparent hit pieces like this one, arguing that it’s a scandal ...

    It's not a scandal because the gestapo now run the country. There is no accountability for the POTUS nor for those closely associated.

    "There is no accountability for the POTUS nor for those closely associated."

    This really irks me!
    Trump & company have no respect for the rule of law
    and they're not too fond of the U.S. Constitution either.

    Unsure???
    "President Donald Trump said he was unsure whether people in the U.S. are entitled to due process rights guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution as his administration pushes aggressively to deport immigrants who are in the country illegally and other non-citizens."

    "'I don't know. I'm not, I’m not a lawyer. I don't know,' Trump said, adding that such a requirement would mean 'we'd have to have a million or 2 million or 3 million trials.' Trump added that his lawyers 'are going to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said.'"

    "Trump made his comments during an interview conducted on Friday that was set to air on Sunday on NBC’s 'Meet the Press with Kristen Welker.' Welker asked Trump whether he agreed with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who said last month that 'of course' all people in the U.S. are entitled to due process, which generally requires the government to provide notice and a hearing before taking certain adverse legal actions."

    You don't need to be a lawyer to understand the constitution. Try reading it dumb ass or get your mommy to read it to you.
