Today at a nice community function I heard one of “them” say to another, it’s a shame all the FEMA money is going to immigrants. I choose not to engage. Waste of time and blood pressure issues. It is so freaking easy to discover facts.

to give to the Helene victims, which he would then apply to his legal expenses.

I expect the next Trump grifting scam to be "personally autographed" AI photos of him handing out supplies to the victims, priced at $100 or $500 each. "Donate to the Trump relief fund for hurricane victims and you will receive one of these autographed pictures."

they are talking about him manipulating the gofundme account money for himself and RW groups......and that people should give money directly to Red Cross, etc. The actual charitable organizations that already are on the ground working.....

His grifting has gone into overdrive these past months......cyber money, bibles, Trump Merchandise, Trump Coins and Trump currency, etc etc etc

should be declared a national day of mourning. I'm sorry for this thought.. we've lost so many in the last few months, it's hard not to think about it when others you grew up with are getting older. But I truly think there should be a day of mourning... she gave us so many excellent music and other cultural arts, she donated to all, and she made sure the neediest were first among us. She's a true lady.

One will affect England and France. The other should die a slow death.
Now worry about others coming off the African coast and of course those forming in the Northern Caribbean or Gulf of Mexico from Central America

family pictures. Those don't count. But I lost my one of a kind Trump collection of sneakers, bibles, coins, stock certificates, Trump money that would pay me 10,000 to 1, watches, T-shirts, MAGA hats, Trump 2020 stuff and more because I buried them at the bottom of the river for safety and the river washed them away.

I am totally devastated , even more than those that lost their lives, or their families, or their homes or normal possessions. Hey, they were losers anyway because God would have blessed them if they were good.

But I need a $250, 000 grant, half to replace my lost items and the other half to donate to Donald for his criminal defense. Please help.
