      By the time he’s finished with being ‘president’ he’ll have stolen a quater of a trillion dollars

      He completely shattered the historical blind-trust norms that presidents have followed since Lyndon B. Johnson. But what makes this a literal ethical nightmare is the timing. He bought millions in Nvidia and AMD stock in early January, right before his own Commerce Department approved high-tech chip sales to China. He’s essentially trading on the policy decisions he makes in the Oval Office.

      My problem with these headlines demonizing Trump is that it implies that Trump is doing the awful things…

      That man can’t use a keyboard and mouse. He can’t manage investments. He doesn’t do this work.

      He has a very large apparatus that does this corrupt shit. His administration is criminal. The republican party is corrupt to the core and will support, defend, and cover up this criminal shit.

      The entire GOP must be removed from power or this shit will never be fixed.

      Table stakes for the next prez is to claw all of this back before putting him in jail.

      If you look at the S&P you can see the manipulation starting the beginning of February and conveniently reversed March 31. I trade daily and it’s complete bullshit. They aren’t even trying to hide it.

      Free market my ass

      The biggest swamp monster of all. The level of fraud, corruption and theft is on a scale we’ll never fully be able to figure out or grasp.

      So much for the blind trust for presidents. Criminal Trump strikes again.

      If anyone campaigns on retrieving these ill gotten gains and prosecuting crimes I will 1000% vote for them.

      I don’t care if they have to pack the Supreme Court to overturn any current decisions.

      Trump is squeezing in as many con jobs as he can before the finest medical coverage that Americans can afford for him can no longer stop the decay from becoming fatal. Maybe Trump thinks that Satan will cut him some slack if he goes above and beyond.

      All that he has done is supposed to be illegal for a sitting president.
      But when you’re a criminal to start with, and still elected. Who’s going to stop him!

      While saying he doesn’t care or think of people’s financial well being in the country he supposedly leads…

    16. myemailiscool on

      It’s ok though MAGA is always telling me he doesn’t take a salary!

      Where are all the conservatives that criticized Obama for selling a book?

    22. heloder85 on

      All for this fat fuck who will probably stroke out within the next few years. But he’s such a disgusting sociopath all he cares about is hurting people and hoarding wealth.

      Republicons know what he is doing and they are letting him do it. It’s all a big grift to get trump crazy rich. Its why we stole Venezuela’s oil, and why we tried to take Iran’s oil. It’s the crypto scheme, it’s the suing the IRS for 10billion or whatever it was, it’s trying to settle with his FBI for some stupid amount. It’s just one huge con. This is why I’ll never vote for a republicon as long as I live.

      The land of the free and home of the brave is watching while conmen are robbing it blind.

    25. HistoricalPlum1533 on

      Progressives need to start running on prosecuting and taking back stolen tax dollars from this illegitimate administration.

    30. aplomba on

      I was thinking that the relative silence from Democrats on the plethora of illegal shit trump has been doing is weird, then I remembered that our media system is entirely compromised. 

    31. Hockeyhoser on

      The real surprise here is that this information has been allowed to be published.

    32. frankcountry on

      When a guy stole from my company they fired him. In the US they roll over and get a belly rub.

    35. Winter8Bones on

      What the actual fuck people. Looking from the outside in, it sounds like you’ve completely lost your government to the fascists. Trump is raping your economy and stealing out of the pockets of Americans and you’re quibbling over the midterms still and wondering if AOC can turn it around in another couple years…? y’all are fucked.

    38. Starcornious on

      I don’t get it. He’s not going to live forever so what’s the point of trying to obtain all this money.

    39. cors8 on

      Can’t wait to see the idiot “both sides” morons chime in on how it’s the same.
