Trump's corruption gets more brazen every day. His latest is stunning. Paying himself 1.7 billion dollars of taxpayer money. He's an utter failure as a POTUS, but a stunning success as the Grifter-in-Chief.

Indeed. In terms of stripping ever more money from the Proles, while enriching himself, he is without parallel.

Trump traded over $50 million in 'Magnificent 7' stocks last quarter, loading up on Apple and Google and selling Tesla

President Trump made 94 different trades of “Magnificent Seven” stocks in the first quarter of 2026, a new ethics disclosure shows, executing millions of dollars in transactions even as he was meeting with and often promoting these top tech companies.

The trades were valued at between $50 million and $70 million across 64 buy orders and 30 stock sales.
