      I think a large percentage of these people are apathetic to others. They know. They just don’t care.

        I think a larger percentage of those people know it, they just want in on the gravy train and hope to do so by supporting the grifter in chief.

    Dutch historian Rutger Bregman, who famously told the Davos crowd to just pay their taxes, got invited by the BBC to hold the Reith lectures.

    In those lectures Bregman said Trump is the most openly corrupt president of the united states. The Trump admin got weird of it and pressured the BBC into censoring that statement.

    Which is the most openly corrupt thing to do. It’s mad that the Beeb actually bent the knee and did what they said.

    Nonsense. They’re talking about that only because they’re poor themselves.

    If they weren’t so poor they’d know that cash doesn’t motivate rich people. It’s about preservation and gain of power, influence, and status

      Not for Trump. It is definitely petty cash, alongside the stroking of his pathological narcissist ego.
