I know I will never convince Trump’s MAGA how thoroughly corrupt this administration is.
Even they should think that Trump settling a lawsuit with himself that requires the creation of a $1.8 billion slush fund to be distributed to those who Donald deems should be compensated. The fund will be administered by “commissioners” that he can fire for any reason at any time.
This is just plain stealing of government money. On top of that, the recipients will never be known to the public. It will be a secret distribution of taxpayer dollars. Also buried deep within the settlement agreement between President Donald J. Trump and Citizen Donald J. Trump is a clause that states that Trump, his family, and businesses are shielded from any I.R.S. claims from any audits to date.
In 2024, The New York Times reported that an I.R.S. audit could cost Trump $100 million. I.R.S. procedures call for every president to undergo a yearly audit while in office. The Trumps and their entities that make billions of dollars every year even if not in office would probably be audited.
If this isn’t evidence of the grift that is emblematic of the Trumps and Trump administration, I don’t know what would be. Donald Trump is stealing from every person in the U.S. Where is Congress who is supposed to keep this president or any president in check? I usually reserve this line for Boss Collins, but now it is time to apply it to Emperor Donald. Increased costs, corruption, and chaos go wherever he does.
All restraint has been pushed aside by him and his family. The question is why. The answer is the same as a murderer gives when he kills repeatedly. “They can only hang me once.”
There is no doubt in my mind that he is the most corrupt president if not the most corrupt politician ever elected. Putin has also stolen billions but at least he sort of does it surreptitiously. Trump does it in the open. He just doesn’t care. Why would he with his pardon power, supine Republican Congress, and Supreme Court immunity?
The slush fund is for those who will do his bidding as they did on January 6th. They will have pardons and now money to be his storm troopers in the 2026 and 2028 elections. The Trumps will have no choice but to continue their corruption spree. What they can’t do is easily give up their power out of fear.
Emperor Caligula
At some point, no matter what the Supreme Court orders or the issuing of pardons by the Emperor, the people may be very close to no longer caring what orders a corrupt and chaotic government gives. I can see desperation appearing on all sides. Then…watch out
