All Hail the Grifter-in-Chief
“I’ve covered Trump’s finances for 8 years and wrote a book about conflicts of interest during his first term. I’ve never seen anything quite like the profiteering that occurred over the last few days.”

Donald Trump and the Grift that Keeps on Giving
$200 million
“Since his victory in November, President-elect Donald Trump’s allies have raised well over $200 million for a constellation of groups that will fund his inauguration, his political operation and eventually his presidential library,“ the New York Times reports. “It is a staggering sum that underscores efforts by donors and corporate interests to curry favor with Mr. Trump ahead of a second presidential term after a number of business leaders denounced him following the violence by his supporters at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.”
Smells Like Authoritarianism
“It’s fragrance your enemies can’t resist!”
So splash some behind your ears and on your wrists.
It’s called Fight, Fight, Fight,
And it’s guaranteed to delight —
If you want to smell like a loyal Trump fascist.
Dining for Dollars
We’ll soon be subjected to Donald Trump’s second inaugural,
And the rich guys’ cash-for-access options are deplorable.
Two million bucks gets you a chance
To dine with Melania and JD Vance,
Which sounds to us like the very definition of “horrible.”
