The World's Greatest Grifter

P.T. Barnum and Charles Ponzi have nothing on Donald Trump, the world’s greatest grifter. The Trump 2.0 grift is now in full swing.

President Trump has no desire to Make America Great Again because America is already great. There are three economic metrics used to gauge a President’s term in office: unemployment rate, inflation and the stock market. During former President Joe Biden’s term, the unemployment rate dropped from 6.4% down to 4.2%. Inflation declined from a high of 9%, down to 2.9%. Finally, the stock market (S&P 500) gained 57% since Biden was inaugurated. History will look back on Biden’s term as truly great economic numbers. However, if you watch Fox News, you probably haven’t heard about our impressive economy.

Fox News said the high prices of eggs and gas was all President Joe Biden’s fault. Today at Safeway, a dozen Trump eggs were $8.99 and Trump gas was $4.99 per gallon, the highest in the nation. Who is President today? Oh yeah, Donald Trump. So, I guess that makes it all Trump’s fault for the price of eggs and gas today, right Fox News?

Donald Trump ran for office again for two simple reasons: to stay out of jail and grift the rubes. Never before in the history of our country have we had a sitting President sell anything and everything with his name attached to make a buck. Had Presidents Obama or Biden done this, Fox News would have lost their collective minds.

Days before his second inauguration, Trump launched the $TRUMP crypto memecoin. This memecoin now has a market capitalization of $58 billion and Trump controls 80% of the outstanding coins. His memecoin is basically magic beans waiting for a bigger sucker to drive the price up. Don’t believe me? Go to the grocery store and tell them you’re paying for your groceries with $TRUMP memecoin and watch them laugh.

Not to be outdone, Melania Trump has gotten into the grift. She came out with her own $MELANIA memecoin. If her husband can make billions grifting the rubes, then she’s gotta get into the action too. Unfortunately, her memecoin only has a market cap of $5 billion.

Melania Trump also has a deal with Amazon to license and distribute a documentary about herself and she's serving as executive producer of the project. Sounds like Jeff Bezos wants to get closer to the orb. Yes, the Obamas also had a deal with Netflix, however after they left the White House, not while they were in office.

The absolute worse is the 20 emails I get daily from Trump begging for my cash. Kind of weird, considering Trump can’t run for re-election again due to the 22nd Amendment, which states, “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.” That’s before this Republican Congress tries to pass laws stating Trump can be our ruler for life. Do you think the Republican Congress cares about our Unites States Constitution and/or the rule of law?

 

Joke’s on you MAGA as President Trump took his oath of office with his wife, Melania “Hamburglar” Trump, holding the two Bibles. Donald’s hand got nowhere near the Bible as we all know one of two things would happen: either Donald Trump or the Bible would have burst into flames. Maybe both.
