    I’m positive that the vast majority of these “people” are bots run by foreign governments. He launched this meme in 3 days before his inauguration, what else are we supposed to think. That $2 billion is mostly bribes with a f ew trumpets thrown in.

    Coffeezilla on the subject. I guess Trump is running with the ‘if the president does it, it isn’t illegal.’

      In what courts? Why would they hold Trump accountable?

      Why would Trump even need a coin? SCOTUS and court cases have shown he literally could break any law and get away with it.

        Because he wants to steal more money and this is an easy way to do so for someone who doesn’t need to obey any laws

        He’s been gradually ramping up the severity of his crimes for decades. He’s still doing it, and won’t stop until we stop him. I don’t know if there’s a ceiling, but I’m certain his gang doesn’t think there is.

    I like that they’re losing money, I dislike that drump himself is probably receiving that money.

        When you have that much money and power, the only people that fail are the ones at the bottom of your trash heap built on the lies that brought you riches.
