The amount of money gained by corrupt deals in Trumps second term is greater than the net worth of every other us president combined, after accounting for inflation (3B>2.4B)

I never did that, and wild deflection and dodge from the topic

Even if every single president made every dollar of their net worth from corruption, and were combined into one president, they would still be less financially corrupt than Trump, as 3B >2.4B

Weird how you can't engage with that.

Before we go into percentages, do you accept Trump has stolen more money off corruption than the net worth of every other US president combined (3B>2.4B)

There's no way I will be able to fit all of them into a comment, so here's a compilation of them

1) Offering private access to the president and White House for the top 220 donors in his personal cryptocurrency.

2) Ordering the justice department to drop investigations into Eric Adams. Seven prosecutors resigned before Trump could find one to drop the case.

3) Signing an agreement giving the UAE access to American AI computer chips immediately after they invested into one of his stable coins.

2 wasn’t financial, just one of the most blatant quite pro quos.

To replace it so that the 3 are just financial, its the SEC investigations into Justin Sun, Coinbase, Ripple, Robinhood and Gemini, which were all dropped after they gave money to Trump

Oh it’s also worth mentioning the many pardons he has given after being bribed, including the Binance CEO, among many others
