Trump And His Rich Friends [1]

Whenever we talk about Trump it's going to be mostly about his money. After all, would this idiotic blowhard even have a national stage if he wasn't rich? No. He'd just be that odd twerk meandering around a supermarket parking lot mumbling about strange things. You know I'm right.

But anyhow, back to the money. Media proclaimed Trump made up all of his donation shortfall to Biden in just one month. Almost like most of America donated to him. Setting a national condition of immense voter groundswell for Trump. We know that ain't true. But most of us don't know just how much of a lie this is. So, I'll itemize. 50 million on May 31st (day after Trump became a convicted felon....I love the sound of that....) from Timothy Melon. 10 million in May from Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein. And another 27 Million on the last two days of May from Large donors (those who contribute 200 dollars or more - and itemize the donation for tax purposes.). My trusty calculator tells me the total from Mega Donors and Large donors (in just the last two days of May) comes to 87 million dollars. Leaving Trump with a miniscule haul of just 54 million dollars from typical small donors.

Still following the money, I think Trump is gonna choose Doug Burgum for his VP. Why? Burgum is also a billionaire. Imagine that MAGA, the party of the people, is going to be led by two billionaires. Yeah, they have a lot in common with us. Burgum has a lot of rich friends also. And based on Trump's fundraising, he is gonna need massive import of cash from Burgum and his buddies.

Like I said. With Trump it's all about the money. What's his is his. And what's yours is his.
