I don’t understand crypto but I understand grifting . And Trump does it in spades.
Don’t need to understand crypto: guy plead guilty, Trump family making billions, Agent Orange pardons him. CORRUPT.
So the question is, why don’t ALL of the news networks, together, refuse to interview Trump anymore…because he literally lies all of the time. Just a waste of time. Like interviewing the loon on the street corner who is yelling at the mailbox.
Nobody is telling him he is delusional because everyone around him is feeding him the delusions.
After CBS paid off Trump, I stopped watching 60 minutes. Lost confidence in their reporting. Trump lies, they ignore it just like Maga
The mainstream corporate "news" media like 60 mins et al. are wholely complicit in normalizing Donald Trump. They need to be excoriated and publicly shamed every single day for their unwillingness to grill corrupt actors like Trump. They are sickening.
Is in plain daylight- selling pardons for billions.
Uk here. Isnt there enough punishing children by starving them across the globe? This is the worst he can go. Bloated bellies, hollow eyes. Trump has never felt hungry one day in his life. That will be his punishment. 😡😡
Psychopaths can nearly always pass a lie detector test. They lack a conscience.
The corruption of this administration is astounding.
