He’s draining the swamp with a pump and dump!
hes draining the swamp to build his custom swamp resort with wraiths and hookers.
They’re going to be light years ahead of us at making pregnant Sonic images.
This genuinely made me do an IRL spit take, holy shit.
Nothing like going to mar a lago and eating a 1 million dollar dinner. We need laws against this type of corruption
The only people capable of applying such laws are the very same corrupt people you want to have subject to such laws.
How is this not massive news?
Faux News had to jump through 100 hoops and do all sorts of gymnastics to connect Biden to some Ukraine business to claim he was corrupt and every fucking Magoo knows the Hunter Biden laptop... Trump just straight up says "PAY MY RESORT $1 MILLION" and then changes policy in your favor and that's not corrupt?
TL;DR Bully got Bribed.
Pay to play. Trump is full blown criminal now. This is only going to get worse unless something stops it.
Now? He's been since the 80's
We just need a big ol name tag thing... "The golf of Trump" or Trump city USA man!
The US is a dirty little whore.
$1 million-a-head dinner
I can't even imagine what that would look like. Surely the ingredients can't be that expensive? And while cooks and staff probably are paid very well, are they gonna spend so much time on a single dinner to warrant that price?
The actual food and service is probably only maybe a couple hundred to a couple thousand/plate
The rest of the price is the "donation". The tactic itself is not bad, many charities and fundraisers do the same thing, charge a hundred or 2 (if it's an event for us pleebs) per person for food and the event and the rest is your donation.
What the donation is for is the problem here
Absolutely not, we're talking about a man who serves fast food to athletes.
I’m betting it’s more like a fundraising dinner — you’re not paying that price just because of the food
Salt Bae was the chef
So do you think there will be any consequences for these businesses just outright buying US policy after Trump?
Yes, there will be consequences. Things will get better for those businesses!
How could there be?
I bet it was the jacket that sealed the deal
How can people support such corruption…
Where is it produce?
It H2O so hydroponic produce grow anywhere
nvidia hydroponic tech grows chips 20% faster, bigger, and juicier
High-end chips? I'm guessing TSMC in Taiwan.
I think some of the memory chips might come from SK or Japan, not sure tho
Hell.
Wait they renamed that place.
Earth, I think.
Oh wow, what are the odds?
That's a good investment Jensen.
banning exports and then waging war over them not importing enough and then unbanning the exports and then saying thanks and then posting something edgy on social media
Imagine not being aware how pathetic you look when someone bribes you. What's that dinner like? Rich people always worry about their status. Who's more important, who has the most money? Trump sitting down to dicuss this for a million dollars. A million dollars is so cheap to them. They must be laughing on the way home at how easy it is to manipulate him.
