It's interesting to know how much he hides in his children's bank accounts in case the IRS or the courts come after him over unpaid taxes or false bankruptcies.

Like it or not, Donald Trump has a net worth of $3 billion dollars. Coincidentally he gets talked about 3 billion times a day.

But we'll only know when "that pesky, eight year long IRS audit ends," and we'll finally get to see his tax returns.

Hopefully, when the poop finally hits the fan for Trump, all that will be discovered.

Its a pity a certain other politician wasn't talked about 3 billion times a day in the 1930s as it would have saved several hundred million lives. But I'll desist in case I invoke Godwin's law.

It's okay, Godwin himself said Trump can be compared to Hitler. Even though Trump never tried invading other countries.

If the negative media between 2016-2020 swung voting against Trump then it did it's job.

JFK?


Not obsession over JFK himself, but rather conspiracy theories regarding his assassination.


Folks even obsessed over Jackie O before, during, and after, she was married to JFK. Folks obsessed over the Kennedies before during and after JFK presidency. The glamour of the Kennedies has sorta faded in the 21st century, while obsession with his assassination has continued. Only in recent years has your observation been true. But folks were obsessed with Kennedies during the whole second half of the twentieth century.

And the Beatles, and Elvis Presley, and Princess Dianna. But the obsession with Trump dwarfs all other examples.

That's because that jackass insisted the election had been stolen from him, and his cult is still trying to overturn the election. Had he just conceded then faded into the woodwork, like all other past Presidents, then nobody would be talking about him. And the little thing about raising an army of rabble to overturn the election through intimidation, along with all the other sh***y little tricks he pulled to stay in the White House, makes him linger in people's minds.

And the rhetoric since his campaign. It all began when he called Mexicans "rapists".

He has a dual cult following. The pro-trumps and the anti-trumps. However the anti-trump side is more prolific when it comes to news media, talk shows, and most forms of social media.

It's those kinds of distortions that makes it difficult to tell which complaints against Trump are legitimate and which are propaganda.

Mexico like America has murders and rapists etc. The claim was that Mexico was getting rid of theirs by sending them over the border to the US.

Which isn't uncommon historically speaking. For instance England sent it's murderers and rapists etc to Australia.
