$10 billion is $30 from every man, woman, and child in our nation.

A small price to pay for the greatness of our Dear Orange Leader.

It is my understanding that the President decides if the Federal Government will agree to a settlement of a lawsuit of this type.

Is this what you voted for magat scum? For Piggy to just gift himself $10 Billion?

But Trump has reportedly made similar moves in the recent past: The New York Times reported in October that Trump sought $230 million from the Department of Justice as compensation for its past investigations into him.

This is what I was thinking of, this MIGHT be different as a suit against the DoJ vs the IRS. The DoJ thing is a wrongful prosecution restitution law, so the DoJ can decide the payment, I think

$10 billion? Why not $40 billion?

Straight into his Qatari bank account.

Republicans won't make a peep about this.

Most will support him.

I'm surprised he doesn't keep a gofundme account open at all times.

$melania just got a $28 million "licensing fee".

Remember when Republicans lost their mind at the thought of a First Lady making $100,000? Or a President's offspring benefiting six figures?

Seems quaint, now.

Trump announced today that he was going to keep housing prices up, sued the US taxpayers for $10B, threatened Canada, made a few dozen posts about how he won in 2020, posted about prosecuting Obama for treason, then went to a movie about his wife that Bezos spent $75 million on.

More and more people are probably smoking over a joint a day or draining two or three bottles of wine daily because of Dummkopf Trumpf and his constant attack on our senses.
