3. STOP calling it an f-ing "settlement"

There was NO controversy that could conceivably stand up as a valid lawsuit.

This contract between a president and the agencies he controls is perhaps the most corrupt scheme ANY president of the United States has attempted to perpetrate on American taxpayers.

Not to mention that congress, and ONLY congress, has the power to set up a settlement fund of ANY kind, as it did in the case of 911.

Even trumpublicans in the Senate see how colossally corrupt this is.
