"Donald Trump Takes Personal Bribes From Foreign Governments to Change U.S. Policy"
Not sure why that highlight of his presidency wasn't the end of it
Not sure why that highlight of his presidency wasn't the end of it
PS/ Trump's own former national security advisor, a far-right radical Republican, says that Trump's foreign policy with (at a bare minimum) China and Turkey and Russia is based on his personal business interests in those countries. That should have been the end of his presidency.
PS2/ If there were to be one question I could ask the American media establishment, and the GOP political establishment, and the entire GOP electorate, it would be why a president taking personal bribes from foreign governments to change US policy isn't an immediate deal-breaker.
PS3/ And if I were doing communications for the Democratic Party, there'd be *very few sentences I uttered* that did *not* include the word "bribe." E.g.:
The guy takes bribes. He's been bribed. Anyone can bribe him. He's bribable. His presidency is wall-to-wall bribery.
Et al.
The guy takes bribes. He's been bribed. Anyone can bribe him. He's bribable. His presidency is wall-to-wall bribery.
Et al.
PS4/ And the best part is, if you add in "in-kind" bribery—which is 100% bribery, and just as criminal, but simply doesn't involve *cash*—we've a mountain of evidence of Trump being engaged in bribery in Ukraine, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, the United Kingdom, Venezuela, and more.
PS5/ When Americans think of Trump, they should have one image in their mind besides babies in cages and what happened in Lafayette Square and Trump mimicking disabilities: the President of the United States receiving secret bribes from hostile foreign governments to harm America
PS6/ That is, finally, why I wrote a book (see pinned tweet) about Trump being *bribed* across the world and here at home: I couldn't take major-media reporting establishing that the man takes bribes to change US policy—establishing it 1000 times over—and no one talking about it.
