Trump Loves Rich Fraudsters

For all his Administration's outrage about alleged fraud by Somalis in Minnesota, that does not disguise the fact that he has a penchant for letting fraudsters and other criminals off the hook, if it benefits him.

Let's go down the roll, shall we?
  • Ross Ulbright, conspiracy to distribute narcotics and money laundering.
  • Rod Blagojevich, political corruption.
  • Brian Kelsey, campaign corruption.
  • Benjamin Delo, Arthur Hayes, Gregory Dwyer and Samuel Reed, money laundering via crypto currency.
  • Carlos Watson, Ozy Media founder and fraudster.
  • Michele Fiore, wire fraud.
  • Eli Weinstein, pardoned fraudster, who then set up another Ponzi scheme and went back to the slam.
  • Scott Jenkins, accepting bribes.
  • Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley, fraud, tax evasion.
  • Joseph Schwartz, Medicare fraud.
  • Changpeng Zhao, founder of Binance, who has done cryptocurrency business with Trump's spawn.
  • Tim Leiweke, bid rigging.
  • Juan Hernandez, drug smuggling kingpin.
  • Devon Archer, fraudster.
  • Jason Galanis, fraudster who, after he was pardoned, had the balls to try and get back some of the money that he had paid in restitution.
  • Trevor Milton,  billionaire, who was on the hook for $600 million in restitution, but skated out of that after Trump pardoned him (his lawyer was Bondi's brother).
And the list goes on and on. If you or a loved one has a Federal conviction (or a charge pending) and you can cough up a million or more to the right lobbyist, you, too, can get a pardon from Trump. It's almost as public a "pay to play" scheme as it would if it was on a billboard outside of Mar-a-Lago.

Of course, we can't forget the fraudster sitting behind the Resolute Desk.

Which comes down to this: The people accused of fraud in MN are not wealthy and are of the wrong color to get pardons from Trump.

  1. So I wonder whether the fraud in Minnesota ads up to more or less than the straight up graft Fergus has perpetrated on the US taxpayer. Example A is the tax dollars paid to Truth Social to run ICE ads, but the example list goes on past the end of the alphabet.

  2. For all their brilliance they can't quite seem to wrap their grubby little fingers around the concept of mob violence. When things get out of hand

    It is said that the plague that accompanied the white-dogs' invasion killed so many locals it lowered temperatures around the world. If we look to the French and Russian revolutions for precedence we may be looking at the start of the next ice age

    See? We can kill two birds with one stone ...
