Trump's Corruption

Debates


From Waukesha Resist. Sorry the links do not come thru on this cut and paste. It's a partial list of Trump's grifting the nation.
*Trump’s sons Eric and Don Jr. have invested in a drone manufacturer that is trying to sell weapons to Gulf countries currently at risk from the war their father started in Iran, and that the Pentagon recently awarded a $24 million contract to a robotics startup for which Eric is the “chief strategy advisor.” LINK
*Trump's financial portfolio acquired $5 million in Dell Technologies stock on February 10, 2026. Shortly thereafter, the Pentagon awarded Dell Federal Systems a $9.7 billion software contract. LINK
*Trump spends $5 million dollars to cover horse statues in gold. LINK
*War in Iran costing $1-2 billion (depending on the source you check) per day. Keep in mind that before donnie started this war, Iran was still observing the nuclear deal it struck with Barack Obama — in which Iran agreed to limit its nuclear activities, including reducing its enriched uranium stockpile and modifying reactors to prevent the production of weapons-grade plutonium. LINK and LINK
*Even if the Trump administration abandons its proposed $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund, the Justice Department may still have a pathway to compensate January 6 defendants and other individuals through the federal government’s existing Judgment Fund. LINK
*President Donald Trump and his family may still get immunity from IRS audits. LINK

My guess is he wants to suck up as much money as humanly possible before he goes to jail for several kinds of fraud but I think when he is no longer POTUS and KNOWING the big 34 felony case is NOT over and when he is no longer POTUS they may pounce and ruin his day. Which can't happen soon enough.
Even if he just got road cleaning crew, that would be GREAT to see that cretin picking up trash on the side of the road, SNL would have a BALL with that one.

Hunter Biden is selling paintings at a markup vs. Eric and Don Jr. selling drones to Iran? You really want to make this comparison?

A startup fund backed by Don Jr. is highly invested in the company that just "won" the most lucrative defense contract ever ($620 MILLION). Vulcan Elements look it up. He's invested in at least two other previously-small companies who have recently "won" massive contracts from the Pentagon. By the way, Don Jr. was not involved in any of this stuff until after his dad became president. No wonder they want to infuse hundreds of billions in unneeded cash to the Pentagon, it's just so they can funnel it back to themselves.

Hunter was selling his paintings for $50k

You see these as equivalent levels of corruption?

In Trumpworld, there is no such thing as white collar crime. It’s alternative bookkeeping.

Whatever it is you're talking about has zero to do with this.

Junior's defense contracting and Jared selling influence to the Saudis?

Something magically tells me that selling paintings and selling books is not the same as that at all.

And he pardons all forms of white collar crime. Fraud is a biggie because he's hoping the acolyte Republican that follows him will pardon him, too.

The Criminal Party.

Odd how not one of you have ever complained about the Biden family/Pelosi/Schumer crime syndicate making hundreds of millions in graft and corruption, why do you not cry about them?

Change the subject much? Maybe I'm an exception but I don't like corruption, regardless of who did it. Are you for or against the Trump sons selling drones to Iran? What is your opinion when a sitting president's son suddenly decides to start investing in small military contract companies, and then they suddenly receive hundreds of millions in government contracts. Are you cool with that?

Got a link for the Biden corruption? We already discussed Hunter's artwork on this thread, seems a far cry from selling drones to Iran, but I'm an optimist. The House of Representatives did YEARS of investigations, here was the result: A bunch of nothing.

Hunter is a spoiled, drug addled nepo baby who exploited his name for profit. However, he had no influence or power in anything remotely considered important.

Cool? Now what about the $640 million no-bid contract that went to a company that Don Jr. just happened to decide to invest in last year? Why is he selling drones to Iran?

So why have you never complained about all the Dems doing it?


@Cliff-Mashburn said

Because I looked at what James comer collected for evidence based on a multi year partisan investigation against the Biden family and it was super obvious that he found nothing. If you have evidence, please share.

There's way more evidence that Don jr and Eric are corrupt on a massive scale.
