I had to beg the bank to get a $5000 PPP loan. It kept me afloat for two months. When I see this type of crap my blood boils

I find Kayleigh McEnany and all other official liars for Trump to be disheartening. Wait... disheartening means when they take out your heart, right?

I read through the complaint. In a nutshell, Trump is using his former campaign manager’s company as a front to funnel money to family and to presumably launder it back to himself, essentially a kickback scheme with no accountability. See paragraphs 86-89.

Basically he's a piece of crap pocketing donations. Not that his donors care because why would they?

The link above is from the Democrat’s oppo book they just put online. That chapter is an extensive list of Trump using the presidency as a revenue generating mechanism, a clear violation of the emoluments clause.
