Explain to me, exactly how Trump is grifting. Give some specific examples where Trump made personal money in a non business related transaction. The difference is that the man actually does have 100's of legitimate businesses. The other's mentioned above had and have zero legitimate businesses to generate that kind of wealth, or any wealth period. I'm sure that Trump gets sweetheart deals because of the power he wields but at least the deals he's involved with seem to actually be business related. Is it right, that anyone get any type of deal that the regular US citizens cannot? No. Is almost every sitting US Congressman and Senator doing the exact same thing that the Bidens were doing and getting cash for no legitimate business purpose other than the position they hold, and being able to actively trade on insider info with zero regulation? Absolutely. You need to just get over it Skinny. It's the world that we live in because we, as a country, have allowed corruption to become a sport and firmly entrenched throughout all levels of govt. at both the federal and state levels. Just like after hours trading being available to only the largest brokerage houses, trading platforms, and equity firms. When the exchanges are closed, there should be zero trading opportunity for anyone, but that is not the case. Speculators that cannot take physical delivery of any type of commodity should not be allowed to take positions in, or trade, in that commodity, period. Want to know why oil and gas prices are up? There's your answer. Everything in the current system is rigged from top to bottom.

$Trump meme coin comes to mind as a recent grift.....
