Donald Trump's fans sent him $1.5 million in 3 days after he falsely claimed that he'd get arrested on Tuesday

 

I will gladly repay you Tuesday for an indictment today

 

Even Trump must be amazed by the stupidity of his followers.

This is like many congressional hearings. The object is to create video of legislators being indignant to be on cable and local news broadcasts.
