Is This What You Voted For? (Part 2 - More to Come)

Full article here: Does Trump Worry About Conflicts of Interest? ‘I Found Out That Nobody Cared.’

Here's a quick breakdown.

During his first term in office, President Trump at least appeared to try not mixing his personal business with government decisions.  Not getting the adulation for it that he constantly craves and demands, he said, "I found out that nobody cared."  He added, "I got no credit for the first term."  In his mind, he was supposed to be praised and adored that he didn't profit off of his position.  Since he didn't receive that dopamine hit that matters more than anything else to him, he's not even pretending any more this time around.

Relax crypto regulations and gut the agency overseeing it, then profit $1.4 Billion from your own crypto business that you just started right before.

Other revenue brings the total the sum to $2.2 Billion - with a B.  Compared to a total of only $622 Million - with an M - of annual revenue for the family business just prior to returning to the White House.  You don't have to be a forensic accountant to look with suspicion on a sudden increase of over 3500% after taking office.  Isn't that the same kind of reasoning Fox News and others have been throwing around about the corruption of Ilhan Omar and her husband?  Where are they on this one?

Corporations connected to foreign governments buying massive stock in Trump family enterprises.  Are the voters even paying attention?

Make a buck any honest and moral way you can.  Make millions.  Make billions.  But this way isn't the way.  Is this what you voted for?

I get tired of saying "I told you so" going all the way back on this blog to 2016.  I'm not a prophet or the son of a prophet, and I truly wish I had been wrong.

Is This What You Voted For? (Part 1 - More to Come)

Did you vote for an administration packed full of fawning officials who bow down and make the sign of the cross every time they pass the official portrait of the President?  Exaggerating?  Here is an official email from the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration.  Remember, this is official government business, not a campaign ad (for a President ineligible to run again... we'll see about that...).  Bolded red font and some underlining added for emphasis.  Five times in four short paragraphs:

Making Life More Affordable for America's Seniors

This weekend, America celebrates its 250th birthday. For over 90 of those years, Social Security has provided financial freedom for America's seniors. President Donald J. Trump and the Trump Administration are not only protecting Social Security, but we are providing meaningful and immediate relief to older Americans who have spent decades contributing to our nation's economy. Just last year, on July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the Working Families Tax Cuts Act. This historic legislation included a tax cut that allows Americans 65 and older to keep more of their hard-earned Social Security benefits. Thanks to President Trump, over 35 million American seniors received an average of $7,500 in relief this tax season. If you did not take advantage of the President's signature tax cut for seniors, I encourage you to review eligibility requirements through the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) website for next year's tax filing season. Under the leadership of President Trump, we are protecting and strengthening Social Security while providing world-class customer service: In SSA field offices, we've reduced wait times by 30 percent; On the phone, we've answered calls 75 percent faster; We're meeting the needs of seniors in the digital age with 24/7 access to online my Social Security accounts; We've increased the number of personal my Social Security accounts to over 100 million users and have processed over 100 million more transactions this year; For disability claimants, we have reduced processing times by 25 percent; and Our efforts to prioritize efficiency, streamline our processes, and decrease wait times are saving Americans time while delivering the highest quality service. Put simply, America's seniors are winning! I'm honored to be in your service. Happy 250th birthday, America! Frank J. Bisignano Commissioner Social Security Administration
