On January 25, 2021, the Supreme Court
put an end to lawsuits alleging that President Donald Trump violated a constitutional anti-corruption prohibition by profiting from his business empire while in office -- particularly from that big luxury hotel in DeeCee a few steps from the White House where foreign governments rented very expensive blocks of rooms, drank over-priced cocktails in the lounge, and ate not very good but super-dear food in the restaurant. The Supreme Court declined to answer whether Trump's private profit amounted to a violation of the emoluments clause of the Constitution, declaring the issues moot because Trump had been thrown out of office. In other words, the stupid Supremes opened the door to massive new corruption. Plus they thoughtfully decided that a second coming of Trump could never be charged with crimes.
Anyone, including foreign actors, can enrich the Trumps by buying up shares in Trump Media & Technology Group, the owner of Truth Social, or through any of the family’s several cryptocurrency schemes.
Also now:
So how can the royal family of Qatar give Trump a $400 million “flying palace” of a plane, one that will act as Air Force One during his presidency but remain his afterward?
I have no appetite for the shit being dished by that man, and I'll be damned and split hell wide open if even sizable parts of MAGA also have a sensible big problem with public corruption, particularly when it's so spectacularly open.
My God, people!

From what I've read, the DOJ is looking at the donation of the plane, it may go to the US government, or maybe the War Dept., and be donated to his presidential library when his term is over in 2032.
Told you that you would enjoy Trumps new term.

Hate is your nourishment
Why, look who is calling the kettle black!
Or is that racist now also?
Not that I care.
