    This shit pisses me off.

    If Biden/Obama/aoc were pulling this we’d hear about emoluments 24/7

    But Trump does it and dems are like oh maybe we should just see what happens….

    Then we have TrumpRX and Trump making millions off crypto

      So technically, in this specific instance, Trump Mobile isn’t run by Donald Trump. It’s instead a separate company run by Don Jr and Eric Trump. That company is then licensing the “Trump” name from The Trump Organization.

      Now The Trump Organization is owned by Donald Trump, although officially run by Don Jr, Eric, etc.

      But you’re absolutely right that all of this is bullshit. It’s also why Trump is so pissed at New York AG Letitia James for investigating and uncovering all sorts of shady business practices.

      You’re absolutely right that Congress should be doing something about it.

      It’s not even him. It’s just another scam company licensing the name to scam a few bucks outta some suckers.

      They’ll be long gone by the time anyone that gives a shit gets back in control of the FCC to hold them accountable

        Just throwing it out there, and for the record I agree with you, but if you’re going to criticize people’s intelligence, you can’t make an egregious spelling error like that.

        Populace.

      Remember that those MAGA dumbasses aren’t just wasting money. They’re adding more power to Trump. Fucker went bankrupt six times and finally found the holy grail of scams: be the senile puppet boy of the rich corpos. I always thought W was a puppet, but he seems to have at least drawn a line at full blown tyranny. We need to convince these people to buy stupid shit again… beanie babies 2.0?

    I’m not the only one seeing the SS rune in the space between the 4 and 7, am I? That had to be intentional.
