Exclusive: #JaredKushner pitching donors on father-in-law #Trump, sources say
Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has been making calls to encourage donors to attend a Trump fundraiser in NY, 2 sources told @Reuters, in one of the first indications of #Kushner working to help re-elect his father-in-law.
A fmr WH adviser to #Trump 🤣, Kushner stepped away from politics after Trump's term ended in 2021 & founded Miami-based private equity firm Affinity Partners.
Paul Booth, formerly chair of SABIC UK Petrochemicals & Steve Gibson, owner of Middlesbrough football club, told the FT the public should have a greater share of the Teesworks regeneration project chaired by Tory Mayor Ben Houchen.
They estimated that the public purse would lose £350m-£550m in rent over the next 10 to 12 years due to Houchen’s gifting the stake held by two local businessmen to 90 per cent for no cash consideration. #ToryCorruption#Teesside#Grift
"IN THE FIRST WEEK OF HIS CRIMINAL TRIAL, Donald Trump raised about $5.6 million online by warning his small dollar-donors that the 'Deep State' was out to lock him up."
Trump sent out an email when jury selection began, saying Biden's attacking him, and his disciples responded by sending $1.6 million in response to the email. He took in another $1 million the rest of the week, mostly from small donors.
"When RNC co-chair and Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump blasted out a robocall last week claiming 'massive fraud' in the 2020 election, it was a continuation of one of the great long cons in history. Four years and counting …
The Big Lie is a criminal conspiracy, a long con, a grift, and essentially a Trump family business opportunity."
Jay Kuo's commentary on how Trump's evisceration of the RNC and its subjugation to him is all about – you'll be shocked to learn – the grift. Trump and his family are and always have been all about the grift, the swag, the exploitation, the glitter, the contempt for the marks they're sucking dry in the proces.
"Trump is spending a good chunk of his donations on his legal bills. The Times ran an amazing report about this on Wednesday. Of nearly $85 million in donations, almost a third, $27 million, has gone to legal bills. Hey, at least this time around, he’s apparently actually paying them.
Trump will have money. There’s no use pretending he won’t."
"But $400 sneakers and $60 Bibles are not signs of strength. They’re signs of weakness. Panic. Desperation. A guy who’ll sell anything that isn’t nailed to the floor. ...
So let’s avert our gaze from the people who’d walk across hot coals for Donald Trump (while he stood off to the side, pleading bone spurs) and think instead about the ones who are slowly peeling off."
"They’re out there too. And they’re starting to see what you and I have so obviously seen for years: a twisted, desperate huckster who’s never cracked a Bible in his life and whose only religion is hustling the suckers who are born every minute."
“Today, Trump began to hawk Bibles for $59.99, plus shipping and handling, with a video message saying ‘Religion and Christianity are the biggest things missing from this country, and I truly believe we need to bring them back…. That’s why our country’s going haywire—we’ve lost religion in our country.’”
Is there any better way to celebrate the glory of the Resurrection than by helping a #criminal suspect—indicted on scores of charges—pay off his #legal fees?
Not according to Donald #Trump, who took his broke ass to Truth Social on Tues morning to announce that supporters can purchase copies of the Christian holy book.
