He also is promising pardons. So his story, he is financially assisting insurrectionists and convicted felons. Why aren't reporters digging deeper on this...where is the investigative journalism. I don't believe he would spend a dime of his own money to help anyone and know this is just a narcissistic brag, but it would be nice to know if our ex-president is financing a past insurrection and paying off his mob.

(16,254 posts)yesterday, and the question came up of whether he had honored his big brag about not taking a paycheck if he was allowed to sit as POTUS.
At first, he told the press who he donated it to, but that was just for 2 or 3 months.
Did he figure out a way to divert that donation to himself or one of his kids? Just curious.

(22,025 posts)Since he never tells the truth and he holds onto money with a tighter fist than King Midas, why would you believe that he's assisting the insurrectionists.
Trump tries to never dirty his own hands. He's not paying for anyone's defense. Apparently, he's not even paying for his own lawyers (the RNC has been footing his bills).
