Nothing says sleaze more than having to return campaign donations.

reports from Republican donation-processing site WinRed show "more than $135 million was refunded to donors by Mr. Trump, the Republican National Committee and their shared accounts in the 2020 cycle through June 2021 — including roughly $60 million after Election Day."

It's pretty clear that the Trump campaign was engaging in deceptive tactics. If you have to return that much money you are doing something either very wrong or very unethical.

I actually think he shouldn't have been made to return it. Anyone who willingly gives money to a known grifter and con man deserves to lose every penny of it.

With all of Donald t's legal bills mounting, a stack of lawsuits to litigate, I suspect he'll be declaring bankruptcy before long. I'm sure Melania is keeping tabs on his wealth as she'll make sure she gets her $22 million pre-nup settlement.

If they're calling a prechecked box on a website 'deceptive tactics', they'll be busy for a helluva long time cleaning up that mess... all over the innerwebs. Not specific to politicians, not specific to Trump.

It still amazes me that headline news is still about what Trump did or didn't do, and precious little about the current adminstration. Not sure how long so many people can keep ignoring the fact that nobody really knows what the hell is going on TODAY.

Maxine Waters, for one:

Let's not forget (like the current administration is doing) Hunter Biden.
FYI Hunter Biden isnt President.

Plenty of people who criticize Trump aren’t Democrats.

Yes, it is. If you aren't with us, you're against us.

Joe has his grubby paws in all of Hunter's shady dealings with the Chicoms. As a result, when it comes to China, Joe is compromised.

My point was sick and tired of listening to what Trump did or did not do. Tell me something about the current administration. Trump is not President so move on.

Resident Briben is also compromised by Russia, thanks to another of Hunter's slimey laptops being stolen by Russians when he was screwing yet another Russian hooker. What a treasure trove of blackmail material. Might explain why the Big Guy killed our pipeline and let Putin's proceed.

This country is going to hell in less than a year. Dems hate the USA so they are quite happy.

At least you are admitting what we already know about your swami. That's progress.
