God I wish we’d scrap this.

We like to think ourselves as so egalitarian and then have policies like this?

I think our current government will take anyone and anything that is willing to offer them money.

Trump's Peace Board? Costs money. If Trump was handing out money to join, I wouldn't bet against us being first in line to say yes.
