I love that they just set up a new "foundation" in Switzerland, like, a week ago, that they're going to route all US "aid" through.
It's really fun watching what the executive branch can do when it's committed to grafting. Like there are literally no guardrails in place. It's hilarious.
It's wild watching the status quo go from "well, uh, you see [insert form of corruption] is actually fully legitimate and ok because you see these crime papers were rubber stamped in triplicate and everyone pinky promised to be a good boy, which you can see was notarized here, so it's all good and normal," to "well sure, president crimes is just stuffing money in a big cartoon money sack and bragging about how much crime he's doing, but you know there's no law that says the president can't do crimes so it's all good and normal."
