After eight years hearing incessantly about Hunter Biden, we are now seeing real, big-time corruption and MAGA doesn’t care.

Remember this?
>And while donors to the Eric Trump Foundation were told their money was going to help sick kids, more than $500,000 was re-donated to other charities, many of which were connected to Trump family members or interests, including at least four groups that subsequently paid to hold golf tournaments at Trump courses.

Really though. They’ve repeatedly shown us how untouchable they think they are. They spit in our collective faces every single day and then laugh all the way to the bank.

The problem with corruption (aside from the enriching oneself) is that it undermines everybody’s faith in any kind of system/protection/reform. It isn’t just taking money, it is a rot that undermines those who would fight to stop it and encourages those who might not have themselves been corrupt before. It is a cancer to society and order.
It is why corruption, especially in the case of high office, should be overwhelmingly stamped out because if we don’t there won’t be anyone left with enough will to even fight it. Currently one entire political party turns a blind eye to it and parts of the other are either corrupt or apathetic. Those that remain have to mercilessly seek out and uproot any and all of it or it will continue to metastasize.

Trump is also wanting to increase the military budget on autonomous drone warfare 24,000%. Of course this will benefit both his kids who either bought into, or were asked into separate drone manufacturers, mostly because they could easily land government contracts. Their investments in drones occurred directly before Trump banned all Chinese drones. Timing, just like purchasing oil futures hours before Trump announced something that will drastically affect oil future prices.

Oohh. Sick burn, guys.
Now can we have them arrested please? Society needs to see that committing crimes has consequences.
No? Best we can do is give them even more government contracts/taxpayer money? Shit.

The rich and powerful have us fighting each other over their manufactured culture war to hide the fact that they’re waging a class war. These people don’t care about ideology for ideological reasons, they only care about using ideology to make money.
