You, mike31mt, and a few others are completely and utterly broken.

Much easier to think ALL media outside of Newsmax and some conspiracy sites are just here to ... I guess do Biden's bidding, or some such thing. This includes Fox News at least some of the time, for being not sufficiently on the reservation. Your authority for this being well documented is an opinion hate piece from USA Today that doesn't cite any corruption on his part

No - I called somebody out for posting a biased opinion piece as factual authority for the claim that DJT was corrupt while in office. But I can see where you didn't get that. It's a bit of a high brow concept for someone like you.

July 20, 20223 yr I mean, Trump literally spent more than 25% of his time as president living at on of his own properties on the US taxpayer's dime. Lobbyists, both foreign and domestic, funneled millions to Trump properties while in DC and elsewhere to curry favor with the president. Here's a fun story where Saudi lobbyists spent $270k buying up over 500 nights at Trump hotels after his election. Much of that time was spent at Mar-a-Lago, where lobbyists were forced to pay a membership fee of $200k - a figure that doubled when Trump became president. Orders of magnitude more money was funneled Trump's way due to his position as president than anything even remotely alleged by content in Hunter's laptop, and Trump encouraged every bit of it. And that's just the low-hanging fruit. There are years of corruption and shady behavior documented in the decades before Trump became president. And doubtless there are countless actions taken by Trump behind closed doors as president - I say doubtless because the J6 committee is shining some light on how he shamelessly used trappings of the presidency to his own personal advantage, and even that is only a small sample of the 4 years he spent there. The guy is the most crooked president in any living person's lifetime. Watergate-level corruption was just a Tuesday in the Trump White House.

Ok so reconcile all this nonsense with the fact that Trumps personal wealth decreased, not increased, during his time in office, and our country was doing very well economically, domestically, and foreign-relations wise Go ahead and show me a list of Presidents who actually lost personal wealth while in office. Since Trump was so much more crooked than all others, this should be no problem at all How much will you bet me that Bidens wealth at least quadruples? this is when the country is in tatters from his poor performance.

We have no idea what his wealth was before or after. Nobody actually knows. That's part of the problem - he offered zero transparency into any of his financials and refused to step away from his businesses while president. His net worth is at most informed speculation. The guy was compromised from the moment he was sworn in because he refused to stop being a businessman and start being a president. The conflicts of interest were evident.

Imagine how f'ing stupid you have to be to cry about Trumps corruption when he literally lost personal wealth and had the country running smoothly. Last time I checked the salaries are locked in, and all the presidents before Trump made an absolute killing, increasing their wealth by orders of magnitude. All while starting random wars, destroying our economy, etc....but nope, no corruption there at all!

You, as a guy who is so outspoken about the dangers of nepotism, should have all that data ready to go.

Sure, sure, we have no idea. Youre so full of ish and the fact that you even mention him being "compromised" when he was sworn in shows that you just ate up every bull ish media talking point hook, line, and sinker He was no more comprised than his predecessor or successor. You're just throwing ish at a wall and it never sticks Look at Obama as an example. You mean to tell me we have no way of knowing if Trump increased his wealth by a factor of ~10?? No clue at all? You sure you want to be this willfully ignorant today?

How did that do during COVID? That doesn't change the fact that millions of taxpayer dollars were funneled directly to his businesses during his time in office, and that lobbyists from all over the world flocked to Trump owned properties to curry favor with the POTUS. Because the guy is transactional to the core. Just because someone is bad at corruption doesn't mean they aren't corrupt. FFS this isn't that hard, but I'm dealing with the densest MF'er on the board so 🤷♂️
