Former President Donald Trump's presidential campaign team said he has raked in nearly $20 million in three weeks, $7.1 million of which came in after his mugshot was released.

    Man I wish that I had no soul. By that I mean morals and/or values. It seems like it would be so easy to fleece these dumb asses, but I just don’t think I could live with myself if I started acting like that.

      Honestly every day I start thinking about preying on the dumb and wealthy. Just, ya know. Not slimy.

      Like setup a “pro life” fund that is actually just pro saving lives and has nothing to do with abortion whatsoever (except where it saves lives)

      You would be siphoning money from going to where it would cause damage. You could forward that money with a place that does actual good. Make sure that the fine print of starting your nonprofit gives you the legal power to do that, select the nonprofit to send it to with care, and you are good to go.

      Trump and Sanders were able to grow a huge grassroots movement for a reason, what they speak about gets the working class going.

        One is backed by progressives the other by fascists. One is for the people, the other rapes them. One is pro democracy, the other is a wannabe dictator.

        Other than they both raised money, that’s about where the similarities end.

        Ah, yes, the things trump speaks about.

        Including, but not limited to

        Pussy grabbing

        Nuking hurricanes

        Injecting …bleach?

        How much he loves the uneducated demographic.

        How much better he is than everyone at everything despite no formal accredations.

        All he’s missing is trucks, beer, hunting, and Jesus, and we have a working class hero, I guess?

          His underlying message is racism. Sadly there is still a lot of deep seeded racism in this country and he gives racists an outlet.

            His underlying message is that it’s still okay to be a selfish asshole, there’s just a lot of overlap
