No he doesn't, lol, he only helps people if they are continually useful to him, then they go under the bus.

Not exactly true. He did various one-off favours in the past . I think you're too negative about Trump. See for instance an article to explain that Trump is rumoured to have helped various people as a one-off thing: https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2023/05/16/giuliani-spoke-about-selling-pardons-for-2-million-and-splitting-proceeds-with-trump-accuser-claims/
Anyway, for anyone too lazy to look at that link. The article is about Trump helping people by giving out pardons, just needed a one-off 2 million usd gift. There wasn't a need to be useful to Trump after that. Yes, my entire reply is a sarcastic one.
We agree, I think, but I phrased it wrong. In any case, always good to reassert what a huge sack of shit he is. Just corrupt as fuck without any attempt to disguise it.
Trump Plans to Reward Rat for Going to Jail Instead of Being Peter Navarro.
Because that's what mob bosses do.
Fascism is just a macro mob
Everyone knows keeping quiet and doing time to protect the Boss is gonna be rewarded when you get out. It’s a standard mafia career move.
Just ask Richie Aprile or Feech La Manna.
But Richie went into the witness protection programme.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former Trump White House aide Peter Navarro was sent to federal prison for obstructing Congress in its investigation of the violent Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
But once Navarro is out of prison, there are a couple things the former Trump White House aide should expect if his former boss wins the election: a pardon, and a new job.
Unlike most of his former colleagues, however, Navarro openly defied the subpoena, leading to a criminal referral by the committee, an indictment from a federal grand jury in June 2022, and his conviction in September last year.
Among those are former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn and former Justice Department attorney Jeffrey Clark, both of whom Trump has privately said he wants posted in his potential second administration.
A number of Trump aides who remain in the former president’s good graces either complied with the committee’s subpoenas or invoked their fifth amendment rights not to incriminate themselves in testimony.
Only Navarro and his fellow former White House aide Steve Bannon stonewalled the committees so completely that they both earned criminal convictions and four-month prison sentences for contempt of Congress.
The original article contains 837 words, the summary contains 190 words. Saved 77%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
