    So you get to use the money you stole from investors to bribe the President for a pardon and keep everything you stole on top of it.

        If the numbers I saw were correct he donated $1.8 million to Trump but hundreds of millions of investors money disappeared. I’m not sure “clever” is the word I’d use but yeah.

    Wtaf? He said he had zero emission 18 wheelers, provided no evidence, then claimed no wrongdoing. He called it a “pardon of innocence” which is the opposite of what a pardon is. He’s an asshole and should be disintegrated.

    Do enough corporate crime, create enough volatility with scam policies and directives, and the global economy will naturally isolate the United States in order to isolate the contagion. In the next twenty years, BRICS could very well eclipse USD based economies, particularly if the U.S. economy crashes and USD devalues rapidly.

    It’s easy to break things, not so easy to build them, and extremely difficult to RE-build them, especially when nobody trusts you.
