That's a more literal announcement of selling out than I expected.

This is a hostile takeover. Corporate raiders have succeeded in gaining control of the world's biggest prize, the US Federal government. Do you not expect them to start breaking it down and selling off assets?

Investing one billion dollars? How are they gonna do that? Just give TrumpCo 1 billion dollars?

It is that, isn't it

Is the $1 billion to be paid in check or just dropped on Trump’s desk in an envelope?

And to think, $1 billion used to be quite a lot of money.

My "Like" should not be construed as indicating approval of this scheme.

Not precisely. The bulk of his voters wanted him to stick it to those elites who think they are better than us and fell for the easily spread lies. Another chunk just wanted to punish democrats for...something or other, it seemed to shift from person to person, but I am sure the Democrats sure learned their lessons. Then there were the fucks who could not be bothered at all.

Shame all of em decided their petty grievances were worth more than preventing fascism from taking over.

They had no idea ... because Republicans have spent half a century starving public education and doing their best to make people with the power to vote completely stupid

We have an emoluments clause for a fucking reason. It doesn't even matter if Trump gets sued for violating it because scotus will just ignore it. Honestly I cry all the time now for what we will lose forever.

He ignored it for all four years of his last term and the courts did nothing.

Along with being a Lame Duck, various health issues, age, dementia, diaper rash, and so forth, Sir's policies alone will manage to alienate enough of Sir's supporters to cast Sir adrift after the midterms. So hang on. Walk your dog(s) and/or make sure those litter boxes are refreshed. Stay alert. Learn about Henry Cow. And remember: there's nothing as Temporary as a Trump, nothing quite as Shite as Sir.
