Surely everyone can see this is a lie? And if it isn't, then it's got to be illegally paying for votes. I can just see the SC ruling - 'everyone should have known he was lying, so it doesn't count as corruption'
It works very similarly to those "Nigerian Prince" scam emails, where most people notice the spelling and grammatical errors and just don't engage, but the dumbest among us slip through the filter and go right ahead and send that check for $10,000 with the utmost confidence that they'll be sent back a check for $15,000...
I think they've made very clear that they use the Nixon rule. If the president does it, it's not illegal
We are way past that, we are on to the might makes right rule.
Who is going to stop them? That is the only question that matters to these super-villain gangsters that seized control of the US.
I was hoping at least for like a Scorpio type from the simpsons when that happened, but there is still time.
Still waiting for all those badass gun owners being heroic.. any moment now.. just you see...
It's a clear violation of 18 USC 597: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/597
Couple of interesting things about this: this covers both the supply side and the demand side of the bribe economy; it's illegal to offer the bribe, and illegal to accept it. Both are punishable for up to 2 years imprisonment per count. So if the US actually were a nation of laws, that would mean approximately 360 million years of prison for the fat orange traitor, and up to 2 years in prison for everybody who votes Republican thinking they're going to get $5,000 for it.
Of course, we're not a nation of laws. Clearly. I mean, Trump has violated the law pretty much every single day (sometimes multiple times per day) that he's been in office, and nothing negative has happened to him. We've all just accepted that our president is a traitor, and that's just the way things are.
Yeah, even MAGA isn’t buying this one. It just reminds them of the promised $2000 DOGE checks they never saw.
wasn't there supposed to be tariff checks as well?
Why does it need to be a lie? It conveniently is more money than anyone on SSI is supposed to have in their bank account, automatically resulting in kicking everyone off that program for having too much money.
