Corruption. Grift. Do you care? We've never seen a President and his family ignore ethics and the emoluments clause the way the Trump White House and family does. It's definitely a pay to play administration. You guys were constantly accusing the Biden's of these same abuses, yet there never was any evidence. Meanwhile, in Trumplandia, they are making it as blatant as possible. If you don't see it, it's because you don't want to see it. It's there. It's everywhere! Trump is pardoning major donors and their family members. He's pardoning drug lords who have been convicted of selling and distributing drugs in the US. Meanwhile he's claiming Venezuela is sending drugs to the US, so he's committing war crimes...and you sit quietly by.
Hey, have you heard about Trump Jr's big haul from the DOD with a contract that involves one of his investment companies? Just in case you haven't, here's the down low:
"Donald Trump Jr. scored a massive government payday with a $620 million Defense Department loan — thanks to a rare-earths start-up quietly backed by his own venture firm.
Vulcan Elements, the barely known company boosted by Trump Jr.’s 1789 Capital in August, is suddenly getting the largest loan the Pentagon’s Office of Strategic Capital has ever issued. This is the newest in a string of government contracts funneled to firms connected to Trump Jr.’s portfolio. Four of them have already raked in $735 million since the president returned to office in January.
Ethics experts are sounding the alarm, warning that presidents are supposed to avoid even the appearance of funneling taxpayer money into their own family’s pockets."
