The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Trump will keep grifting off his gullible worshipers till the cows came home...

Trump's PAC has been under fire lately for using the donations from his supporters to fund his now-three indictments,
as well as for paying stylists and hairdressers for his wife Melania Trump.

"Most of the money that middle-class Americans have given to him, he spent on his own legal fees." Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said
Referring to the recent findings from FEC, Trump has spent over $40 million on legal costs this year alone from his PAC, along with nearly $20 million he spent throughout 2022.

Christie added that he believes Trump should use other means to fund his legal troubles, saying,
"I mean, this guy's a billionaire right? How about go down the street ' maybe just sell Trump Tower and pay for his legal fees that way.
Or maybe sell the plane, he could do that, or one of the golf courses."

"I want voters to listen to this. It is most likely that by the time we get on the debate stage on August 23,
the front-runner will be out on bail in four different jurisdictions: Florida, Washington, Georgia, and New York." Christie said

Grifters gonna grift. Keep sending in that money suckers!
