It's the same scam I discussed in this thread -- the NRA and the Trump Campaign via Parscale are running it. https://twitter.com/DirkSchwenk/status/1291520435809591297?s=20
Trump himself has always done it -- although he mostly runs it as a tax scam, I'm sure he's hiding other stuff too. https://twitter.com/DirkSchwenk/status/1291520439613890570?s=20
Usually the lawyer is in on it. Bannon's hasn't been arrested yet, which means he's either cooperating or vomiting right now. https://twitter.com/DirkSchwenk/status/1291520443522977797?s=20
It's a "business model" - fraud. They are all doing it, and they are all vulnerable now. https://twitter.com/DirkSchwenk/status/1291520444693188608?s=20
THIS IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG (heh heh) https://www.npr.org/2019/11/07/777287610/judge-says-trump-must-pay-2-million-over-misuse-of-foundation-funds
Judge Says Trump Must Pay $2 Million Over Misuse Of Foundation Funds

If you dig this kind of thing, please follow. I try to offer thoughtful commentary and stay ahead of the disinfo. I also occasionally spam people with my band stuff @dirkandthetruth
Trumpists could not care less about their voters, except that those voters send money to even the most obvious frauds.
Tasty Detail: Mr. Hates-The-Voters himself is (at least publicly) the lawyer who signed off on the #fraudwall scam.
