How Trump Has Pocketed $1,408,500,000

President Trump has never been a man to ask what he can do for his country. In his second term, as in his first, he is instead testing the limits of what his country can do for him. He has poured his energy and creativity into the exploitation of the presidency " into finding out just how much money people, corporations and other nations are willing to put into his pockets in hopes of bending the power of the government to the service of their interests. A review by the editorial board relying on analyses from news organizations shows that Mr. Trump has used the office of the presidency to make at least $1.4 billion. We know this number to be an underestimate because some of his profits remain hidden from public view. And they continue to grow.

This administration is literally everything "constitutional conservatives" claimed to be against for my entire adult life.

It's the antithesis of what their supposed idols and stalwarts like Reagan and Buckley expressed.

Yet they stand there, bobble heading along with every single illegal and unconstitutional action with chirps of "just comply" and "but but but Harris" as if it addresses the issues.
