    Trump University

    Trump: The Game

    Trump Vodka

    Trump Airlines

    Trump Steaks

    Apparently Trump had 26 failed businesses!

    Why not go for 27!

        If the government financial trams aren’t already investigating it, then they’re stupid. This is shooting fish in a barrel for financial crimes.

        Garland be like… Crime must not be prosecuted in an election year… Or two years after… Or look guys I’m neutral.

        Spineless AG is chilling until he hopes it all blows over.

        I hope Kamala as an ex prosecutor appoints an actual prosecutor.

      My beautiful new currency is taking the market by a landslide, and we are not even there yet. We have just started. And you know what? We’re doing great. But we’re getting there. You know, they say that if Trump doesn’t start his own crypto, it’s over. It’s over, folks. If he does, no currency is ever going to be better. They’re never gonna — he’s got such great ideas. He’s done an incredible job for us. So we’ll see what happens, but I’m telling you, this is one of those things.

    Presidents ARENT allowed to have Outside Businesses as that would be a Conflict Of Interest and Put the United States in a National Security risk but I’m OK with Trump doing it because he’s a REALLY GOOD, Probably THE BEST, Businessman in the World! Who hasn’t Bankrupted over 20 Businesses!
