The “fund” is meant for the true believers of lies and criminality in the service of their orange lord and master.

Who was killed in the 1/6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. How about to the U.S. Capitol Police officer who was falsely accused of setting the pipe bombs at the DNC and RNC. How about for all the Capitol Cops who were falsely accused of being involved in the Jan 6 attack.

Why?

Because it's a Trump scam that works solely for his benefit.

Because there is not a single Republican in the entire USA who will stand up to him.

Because the national media figures, oh, well, it's just Trump being Trump and what about Hunter Biden's laptop and Hillary's email?

Because this is where we are as a nation.

We learned one thing from Trump's visit to China: China is in the ascendency and the US is a declining power. We just didn't know how much we have declined and how fast it will happen.

Did anyone bother to read "Project 2025?"
