President Trump. By Paul Waldman Paul Waldman Opinion writer covering politics Email Bio Follow Opinion writer May 8 at 2:40 PM If anyone ought to be able to appreciate a clever, small-time con, it’s President Trump. After all, he’s the creator of Trump University, the Trump Network, the Trump Institute and any number of other schemes to separate gullible people from their money.
The statement by Trump’s campaign Tuesday makes no mention of the president’s former deputy campaign manager, David N. Bossie. But people close to Trump told The Washington Post that it is specifically aimed at Bossie and the organization he founded in 2005, Presidential Coalition. [...] What Bossie’s group did was send out mail solicitations that looked a lot like they were seeking donations for the Trump campaign, or at the very least political activities that would benefit Trump, but much of it apparently went into Bossie’s pocket.
For instance, here’s a story about Dick Morris getting nearly $2 million in donations to fight Barack Obama, virtually none of which went to fighting Barack Obama. Here’s a story about tea party groups paying prominent conservative radio hosts to promote them, and using the proceeds to keep paying the radio hosts. Mike Huckabee uses his email list to hawk scam “biblical” cancer cures. Herman Cain will help you cure your erectile dysfunction. Ben Carson sold “glyconutrients.
From time to time, a conservative will raise an objection to these endless cons that course through their movement like a virus , but the critiques are few and far between. And Bossie has been part of that world for some time.
This OPINION piece is garbage. That’s my OPINION
Yep, make America morally great. America is always & will be great.
It’s only when Trump gets 100% of the scam profits that he condones it.
Venn diagram of people who send 💰 to evangelists and also who send money to this type of s*** would pretty much be two circles sitting on top of one another.
Now this is a laugher. 'This here is my country, pilgrim, and nobody comes in here to scam people while I'm scamming them. Either give me my cut or get outta Dodge, you two-bit Republican.'
Who else stops reading at 'Opinion'?
No honor among thieves.
He ran on the banner behind him that said..Make America Great Again! And he have delivered on his promise, the America economy is number one in the world and unemployment is at it's lowest in decades, among other achievements. So what and where is the Scam?
everything is a scam from the right and trump.
Just another piece of the 98% negative reporting by the WP.
Lol way both parties operate.
What happened to wall ?
The whole platform of the GOP is a scam. Trigger their base with abortion and immigration and them rob them blind. GOP loves those low info voters.
LOLOLOL!! Dear realDonaldTrump : Lie down w/dogs, arise w/fleas. Corollary: You knew he was a snake before you took him in. He's your acolyte just following your fine example. Surround yourself with thieves and grifters, and someday they'll use you too. Thoughts and prayers.
Let's not spreading this overheard theory among the magats: -45 loves putin & russia -45 wants the US to be more like russia -The russian people cannot own guns -Only the russian military can own guns -45 wants YOUR guns -45 wants YOUR guns -45 wants YOUR guns Beware of 45!!!
I agree,it's only Trump who has the sole authority to scam the conservatives and the American public .How dare this guy to invade Trump's territory. In the olden days,this guy would have been gunned and his body riddled with 2000 bullets .
Why would a 'news' outlet that is struggling mightily with being taken seriously continue to only run opinion pieces from the same insane and thoroughly wrong people?
If Trump doesn't get a cut, it isn't a good scam. (The Capone Rule of Executive Management)
Going to run a scam? He's been doing it for a few years now.
They're natural-born suckers.
