In one of the most absurd scenarios being played out in American history, Donald Trump commands corruption investigations of his political opponents … again. Trump supporters laud Trump as the one trying to clean up corruption in a Washington swamp? Hilarious, if it were not so threatening to democracy. This, yet another example of Trump projecting onto others. Trump corruption exists before and after the election, some documented in books such as David Cay Johnston’s “The Making of Donald Trump.”
Trump was a corrupt businessman. What fools still believe Trump is saving the American economy when Trump and family have so much of their business overseas? Farmers are committing suicide facing the loss of family farms. Businesses are failing. Trump tariffs are to blame. Bankrupt Trump bankrupting America in business and morals.
Trump received Russian aid and comfort in his 2016 campaign. He is now soliciting aid from China and Ukraine for dirt on opponents. America should be asking China and other foreign governments to turn over their files on Trump.
No one hides tax and business records like Trump, unless he or she has evidence within of corruption. I would not hide my tax returns, nor should Trump be allowed to. Trump corruption and lies are in public view. End Trump corruption today. Save America.
