Scaramucci got fired and it will cost him millions
A bad week for The Mooch.

Lawyers for recently ousted White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci confirmed to CNN that he will pay capital gains taxes on the sale of his hedge-fund, Sky Bridge Capital.

“Mr. Scaramucci is going to pay the capital gains taxes once the sale goes through,” said his lawyer, Elliot Berke. “There was never an attempt to game the system — it was simply to adhere to what is allowable by law. His true and only purpose was to serve the country. And he will be back.”

Federal law allows new executive branch employees to defer capital gains taxes on assets they were forced to sell in order to avoid conflicts of interest. According to his lawyers, Scaramucci was anticipating that large tax break when he struck up a deal in January to sell off his hedge-fund, SkyBridge Captial, to a Chinese investment conglomerate. His lawyers also mentioned that government officials, including a White House lawyer, recommended he apply for the tax break.

Opinion: Trump’s 100 days look like Jimmy Carter’s

You shouldn’t be surprised that the Trump trade has lost its steam. The new president promised big progress in his first 100 days, and other than a new Supreme Court justice, not much has been done.

No healthcare plan, no infrastructure plan, no money for his beloved border wall. The White House said Monday that the corporate tax rate should come down to 15%, but has offered few other details—other than to say it doesn’t matter if the deficit goes up. Budget hawks in Congress are already squawking.

Trump’s big promises were baked into the cake by investors, but now things have cooled off amid the absence of solid progress.

Trump, in fact, is beginning to look like a president that Republicans have disparaged for decades—Jimmy Carter. And why not? The comparisons are there:

Like Trump, Carter came to Washington an outsider, vowing quick action and to change Washington’s insular culture. Watergate was just two years in the rearview mirror and Americans were sick of corruption. Forty years later, Trump rolled into town with a similar determination to do things differently. He told us he’d “drain the swamp.” Instead, he’s added more creatures to it.

But—and doesn’t this sound like Trump?—Carter bit off more than he could chew. His presidency began in a rush, with multiple priorities that spread himself too thin. Everything was critical and had to be done yesterday. He and his so-called “Georgia Mafia” picked fights with members of their own party, insulting them when they didn’t get their way.

He hopped from item to item, changing direction frequently and lacking overall focus. His presidency never recovered.

Substitute “Trump” for “Carter” and the story’s about the same.

But the similarities end there. Carter still got laws passed and had a 63% approval rating, some 21 percentage points above Trump. And, of course, Carter was scrupulously honest. He said he’d never lie to the American people—and didn’t. Trump, on the other hand, can’t make it through a day without lying—and then he lies about lying. President Trump possesses the worst characteristics of Carter—but none of the best.


Support for Trump Continues in Coal-Dependent Wyoming
As a leader and head of state, Trump also appears unusually uncomfortable in the job. He’s no smoothie like JFK or Ronald Reagan, men who seemed comfortable in their own skin. Kennedy and Reagan always had a smile and a good joke to tell; they understood that this humanized them, made them likable, even to those who disagreed with them. That’s the sign of a good politician. Trump lacks their confidence, their easygoing style. From a leadership and governing standpoint—which is what counts—it makes it harder.

The president has more in common with Richard Nixon, famous for being humorless and uncomfortable around others. Trump hates to shake hands, never goes out on the town—and when was the last time you heard him tell a joke? He doesn’t have a dog, which also would soften his image.


Then there is the press. No president is a fan—the friction goes all the way back to George Washington—but like Nixon, Donald Trump’s hatred runs especially deep. Like Nixon, Trump sees enemies everywhere; his paranoia leads to unnecessary fights and the harboring of decades-old grievances. Franklin Roosevelt, Reagan and JFK schmoozed reporters. They knew they’d still take their licks from time to time, but it didn’t hurt to reach out. It’s a lesson lost on Trump.

Trump also lacks one of the most important characteristics any leader can have: the acceptance of personal responsibility. When things go wrong, good leaders take the blame. When things go right, they typically give credit to others. What did Trump do after Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens, a Navy SEAL, died during an operation in Yemen? He threw his generals under the bus. “The Buck Stops Here,” the famous sign on Harry Truman’s desk said. Donald Trump is no Harry Truman.

And for all his bashing of Barack Obama, President Trump has much in common with his immediate predecessor. Republicans ripped Obama for golfing too much and rarely gong to church. Trump has played tons more golf than Obama at this stage. He’s set foot in church once.

Trump came into office with the lowest approval of any new president in modern times. His early stumbles haven’t helped. But markets, while no longer shooting up, have held up. But you can only brag about what you’re going to do for so long. The president must start delivering—or he’ll wind up like many of the predecessors he spent years maligning.

Bài viết này đã khiến cho thư viện Jimmy Carter phải trả lời hối đáp:

(kèm theo sau là bài viết của LATIMES nhận xét & phê bình)

It’s become so embarrassing that now, even the Jimmy Carter Library is taking pot shots. In a trollish Tweet, the library reminded everyone of what the 39th president had accomplished at the conclusion of his first 100 days.



Jimmy Carter’s first 100 days..

Laws passed: 22
Executive orders: 16
Approval rating: 63 percent

Why 100 days? Trump thinks the benchmark is lame. Is he right?

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-trump-100-days-questions-answers-20170429-story.html

So?

Trump hasn’t pushed through a single major piece of legislation.

Hmm. He must be humbled and quite chagrined, wondering what’s gone wrong.

You crack me up.

Come again?

The president and his representatives have portrayed his first 100 days as an unparalleled success, surpassing even Roosevelt’s performance.

“I don’t think that there is a presidential period of time in the first 100 days where anyone has done nearly what we’ve been able to do,” Trump said.
