... isn't crime, for Trump. It's alternative bookkeeping.


quote:

Philip Esformes, whose 20-year prison sentence for a massive, $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme was commuted in 2020 by then-President Donald Trump, was arrested over the weekend in Florida on domestic-violence related charges.

Esformes is at least the seventh person who received executive clemency from Trump, and has since been charged with new crimes, according to The New York Times, which first reported this latest arrest.

I do hope history cuts through all the Trump BS and represents him properly.

Not famous, but infamous. Not a celebrated hero, but a notorious villain.

Incredible, isn't it--Stealing a cool billion from the goobermint isn't a crime, for Trump--and the GOP just goes along with it. Drain the swamp, my ar$e! Trump has simply enriched himself and his billionaire buddies, at public expense.

Joe will be along presently to remind us how corrupt Biden was. Never this blatantly though.
