    He’ll pay them their $9000 in Trump Coins. Then they can put that $6000 in Trump Coin into the crypto market of their choosing and trade it for $500 in any other cryptocurrency they want (less fees), or just cash it out for $3.50.

      Let me tell the damn story now! He said “treefiddy” And so I realized that it wasn’t no president, it was that goddam Little Saint James monster again trying to trick me into giving him treefiddy by dressing up like an air traffic controller. Don’t that just beat all?!

      More correctly: he can find the money for his gaudy as fuck ballroom reno, but not ATC or SNAP. He has a long and storied tradition of simply not paying people when he says he will, even when contractually obligated to do so.

    It’s quite simple. Which big defense/aerospace contractor has business before the government? They can make a donation to give those bonuses, no additional tax money is used, and it’s all win/win, right? What’s bribery a little gratuity between friends?
