    Like other dictatorships building golden palaces and keeping their area nice while not giving a fuck about other places.

      Like his planned gaudy gilded ballroom?

      The number of people who could be fed and housed with that money should make you sick if you’re not a monster.

        That fucking ballroom is proof to me that he doesn’t plan on leaving at the end of this term.

        There is no way that selfish greedy fuck would spend the money on this if he didn’t think he would be around to use it for a long time.

          To be fair, he’s spending taxpayer dollars, not his own money.

            In his mind, everyone’s money is his money. He basically said this in his rooftop soliloquy.

              In practical terms, he’s correct. He owns this country and anyone who disagrees is delusional

              That is objectively untrue. He has been grifting millions in crypto. There was a period of time after the last defamation judgement when his liabilities outstripped his liquid assets, but then he went full steam into crypto and never looked back. He is a full-time crypto grifter who is the US President as a side gig. And now, everyone understands that if you have business with the US Government, buying some $TRUMP will be a necessary thing to have any sort of positive result.

                I was thinking it would be really cool if some crazy person decided to just blow up that bribe jet. But I guess it will not happen. The crazy gun nuts just like to shoot up kids, blacks, gays and Jewish people… and governmental employees/state politicos.

            He claimed he’s using his own money, though somehow I don’t believe him.

              He “donated” his presidential salary for this year. But not the bribes.
