Amazon should pay $40 million on a documentary about all the scams Trump has participated in.
They could make an entire series. Multiple seasons even.
Or created
Holy shit though, this is crazy conning at a huge level, lol.
Fucker has been so enriched while being in office it's really disgusting. I believe the reason he wants people to pay student loans isn't some fairness bullshit. He thinks he can scrape the top off them at the least.
I love stupid MAGA people
who can sell and when
Holy shit, that’s freaking icing on the cake. You get what you deserve
This was the most obvious rug pull I’ve ever seen.
They only want out because they thought he would tell them when to pull, which doesn’t makes sense because then who’s getting ripped off?
THE LIBS… somehow.
You can fool all the people some of the time, and ~~some of the people~~ MAGA all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time.
These idiots would enthusiastically vote for the child rapist a fourth time.
This is so fucking funny, honestly
No mention of grounds for impeachment under the domestic emoluments clause?
Not as long as the traitor filth republicans continue to destroy the country by allowing the demented rapist to wreck literally everything.
And the Democrats, who roll over and give Republicans whatever they want.
Don't be silly, that only applies to Democrats
One of the few bright spots in this whole mess is seeing this meme evolve into weirder and weirder images every day. I hate everything about the current political climate, but at least I know I'll see a new version of this every time I open the comments on here. And that makes me smile.
Biblically accurate fell for it
thats so fucking dumb its less "leopard eatting face" and more "wallet inspector"
Its not even sad anymore lmao get fuk'd
"But... The imimigrants are the cause of all muh prohblems.
Thank you presidentrump for a being the racist we couldn't openly be.
Long live merikkka"
I would simply sell them to a Greater Fool. Problem solved.
That's just regular crypto trading.
I wish I was a greater fool in 2010.
Imagine having 1000 bitcoins tucked safely away in your MtGox account
It would be nice to maybe have a chance of seeing some of that money again, but the knowledge of what I'd fucked up would have a heavy mental burden of its own.
Obviously if it was me I surely would've pulled my coins out when the email addresses got leaked, because I'm such an unusually foresighted person.
They can't sell them!
They literally cannot lol
Damn, can't believe this Worthless Loser Fucking Idiotcoin isn't working out for them
Imagine that, the literarily illiterate are also financially illiterate.
Womp womp
I forgot about that...
Any good news about his NFTs aswell?
That's like the wet dream of wall street "market makers" aka criminals.
lmfao
Suckers!
So this is just OneCoin all over again. Let's hope the Russian mafia "disappear" Trump as well.
wild how this is legal
