Trump Grift Watch, 2025 edition

[lawgator1]

So two new gimmicks. First, he is hosting a private dinner in May for the top 220 owners of Trump meme coin. Trump makes money off of the coin because two companies he owns also own about 80 % of it. And when this dinner was announced, the value went up by over 50%.

Trump's meme coin, which had fizzled in value, surges after offer of dinner with the president

President Trump's meme coin had lost 88% of its value. But an offer of dinner with the president helped boost its price on Wednesday.

Second, Trump allies, including his son and his investment bank, are starting the "Executive Branch" club in Georgetown, with it costing over a half million to join. Again, it ensures access to the administration.

We already know about the hats, the USA Bibles (made in China) and the Swiss watches (made in Wyoming).

But now looks like the whole family and their biz partners are all joining in. Can you imagine for one minute the reaction from MAGA world if Obama or Biden had started a venture whereby they owned 80 percent of the valueless asset then artificially created demand for it by selling WH access? They'd be apoplectic !!

I no longer belong to a political party. Doesn't mean I can't see that Trump is a crook.

You don't say **** about the left anywhere near to the degree you do Trump. Your still a Marxist no how much you protest

 

[TN Ribs]

Volnation doesn't have enough server capacity to document all of the Trump Crime Family's endless grifting.

Could that be because Trump is so far ahead of everyone else in level of grift that he is in a class by himself on it? Seems obvious to anyone objective that this is the case.

And for the record I have bashed Dem Sen. Menendez and his wife for their bribery and have bashed Dems and R's alike for insider trading, of any sort.

Come on, the Trump family isn't even that far ahead, if any, of the previous admin. Then you've got groups like the Clinton's, Bushes, Cheney, Obama, etc. The whole thing is a grift which would be acknowledged by any honest independent

'independent'.

A lot of Republicans feel that way too. Sorry. Almost anyone with a brain has distaste with both Biden, Harris and Trump. It's laughable yet pathetic too

ANOTHER lg thread?

You don’t want Trump merch, then don’t BUY Trump merch. No one is making you

Life hack: Don't open a thread when you're only point is to criticize it's existence.

SOMEBODY has to stage an intervention

Yes, poor LG. we all know evil is just a troll, but LG actually believes his party is good

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

It's more apparent with the constant Mar-a-Lago visits. Trump Company doesn't comp those visits. Who benefits from that? That's the ultimate grift

You are as much of an independent as Gavin Newsome is a centrist.

Y9ou didn't say **** about the money laundering scheme that the Bidens were running. Oh wait. Now you'll tell us that that was all made up.

This thread kicks azz. Prepare to get educated on the art of the grift.
