    I won't go through all the fantastic details again, but remember these facts:

    Fatfuck spent four years in charge of the government in charge of the Treasury Department which issues orders for paper currency.

    He could have ordered his flunky, Monkey Boy Mnuchin, to print up virtually infinite amounts of paper US currency and deliver it to any destination he saw fit, each and every day of his tenure.

    Why would he not do such a thing? Let's review.

    1) It's stupid.
    2) It's illegal.
    3) He would have to order others to commit illegal acts
    4) He'd get caught
    5) He'd get prosecuted and punished

    So I guess that explains why it could never happen... right??

    Maybe she mistook him for a legendary former WWF manager?

    6) Printing more money deflates the value of the current economy, thus forcing massive inflation (much more than we have as a result of the COVID-19 recession). Third-world countries do this all the time. It’s why US$1 is worth over 23 Turkish lira, close to 83 rubles, and over 154 Jamaican dollars.

    Printing all that cash kills trees, aggravating global warming to fan the wildfire flames in Canada and wreaking smoky vengeance on New York, the city that rejected him.

    Why would Fatfuck care if he had trillions stashed away i money bins? Even if the money was worth less, he'd still have most of it.

    To state the obvious, also, the Treasury manages the money coming into the government and that gets paid out by it. Or more accurately, in modern times, it issues a shitload of debt so we can pay out way more than we take in.

    The treasury doesn't control the money supply.

    I find it absolutely nuts that political leaders are radicalizing a good chunk of our population - in public (even using the public airwaves to do it) much like various Islamic militants did to get their followers to take action.

    Keith Olbermann makes an excellent point on his podcast today: Why are Democrats keeping their mouths shut? Why aren't all Democratic elected officials screaming to the high heavens about the grave crimes against our national defense that Trump is so clearly being accused of? Why cede all the ground to Trumplicans?

    Star Man-

    You've been on that hobby horse for years. If he stole the money you claim he would not be flying around in that junky plane he's been using.

    The stupider it is the likelier his dumb ass is to do it - that has been proven over and over again.

    If Trump had been doing Starman’s fantasy crime, it would have leaked by now.
