Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Sure he may be handing out pardons if people give him enough money, shilling his own cryptocurrency, still own his golf courses and hotels he throws events at, and generally enriching himself and everyone in his administration, but that doesn’t mean we can say he’s corrupt.
Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

BBC censors a lecture removing author’s remarks on Trump that refer to him a the most openly corrupt American president.

Evidence shows JPMC severely underreported Epstein’s suspicious transactions to the U.S. government for decades, potentially in violation of federal anti-money laundering laws.

Top JPMC execs were in constant contact with Epstein and were aware of his shady financials. Top staff at JPMC, reporting directly to CEO Jamie Dimon, closely supervised Epstein’s accounts. One even coached Epstein on how to sanitize his suspiciously large cash withdrawals.

again, try to imagine how much the complete destruction of all corporate oversight and consumer protection is worth
After January 6, 2021, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Comcast publicly pledged to stop donating to politicians who sought to undermine the legitimate results of the 2020 presidential election.
In 2025, these companies have stopped worrying about democracy and are buying Trump a ballroom.

Right: he's treating Treasury accounts like slush funds to pay military personnel, he's buying luxury jets for cabinet members with our $$, he's using state power to extort bribes to fund his stupid ballroom, and now he wants to help himself to a 9-figure sum while fed workers aren't getting paid.
sorry, man, but this is breathtakingly, shockingly corrupt in every fucking way it can be, and an open and shut and uncomplicated case for impeachment. he didn’t even pay for these lawyers, his donors did, for fuck’s sake.
ask every republican in congress whether they think the treasury should pay donald trump almost a quarter billion dollars while federal workers are in their third week of not getting paid
