    The grift!

    He paid for government access to shutdown all the regulators that were looking into his fraud. Quid pro quo classic corruption out on the open. He should already been in prison.

      He’s a flight risk.
      Arresting him then chopping his arms and legs off would be a good way to stop him making a run for it!! (If he’s not guilty then give him back his appendages)

      Another alternative is my patented “feet first woodchipper slow dunk.” I can’t explain the basics about this option because I get too excited…

    That’s how he paid for that stupid car.

    You notice how the windows are all dark. Even the front ?

    That car had no seats or anything inside. Just the jet engines machinery. what a joke.

      Wait to you learn that Tesla was never profitable because the reality was the majority of their profits were based on financial instruments like carbon credits. It was always a pump and dump scam.

    Um, isn’t he basically a welfare queen and supposedly worth nearly a trillion?

    It seems like this is only the latest $16 billion he got from taxpayers?

      Money is imaginary. Theoretically, all we have to do is all collectively agree that the imaginary units are no longer in his account and are in another account instead

    On one hand, that’s $16 billion in contracts so not directly into his pockets.

    On the other, that’s one line item he’s acquired from the federal government over the last decade or so of intensively working contracts for the government.

      He openly had communications with dignataries and leaders of other countries about how the U.S. should be changed and tried to enact such while not having permission to do so. It’s hard to not find this illegally immigrated now American guilty of several crimes. If he was worth 32 million he’d be in prison and possibly sentenced to death for treason.

      People act like the UK didn’t already have a parliament before the US formed and like everyone in US had the right to vote (rather than the roughly 25% at it’s beginning) like it was some kind of democratic singularity rather part of a moving front. The propaganda is strong.
