Shock: The Trumps Admit It on Live TV... - Pondering Politics

[TexasTowelie]

Here are the key points from the video transcript:

• Trump family openly admits to profiting from presidency - Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were confronted on CNBC about conflicts of interest, responding that critics "gave us no choice" and "created this monster" rather than denying the allegations

• World Liberty Financial crypto deal - A UAE royal family member invested $500 million in the Trump family's crypto venture, then received access to advanced AI chips previously denied by the Biden administration, suggesting a quid pro quo arrangement

• Eric Trump's drone company investment - Eric invested in Extend, a drone manufacturer competing for $1.1 billion in Defense Department contracts, creating direct financial ties between the Trump family and the military led by Donald Trump

• Estimated profits of $2-5 billion - Various sources estimate the Trump family has made between $1.5-5 billion from leveraging the presidency, primarily through crypto ventures and deregulation of the industry

• Job losses vs. Trump wealth gains - A chart comparison shows job creation plummeting under Trump while his personal net worth skyrocketed, illustrating the contrast between public economic suffering and private enrichment

• No accountability concerns - The video argues the Trump sons' brazen attitude reflects their belief that voters won't hold them accountable, urging viewers to demand Democrats prioritize investigating this corruption

3. They admitted to the Russians funding their Scotland golf development too and nobody did anything

They are spoiled, entitled, rich and think that they can do whatever they want with no accountability.

5. the drones are the best in the world or the usa loses wwiii and most of us die or

the drones have weaknesses we can exploit to protect ourselves from these sadistic overlords.

either way, we end up dead.

in trump's calculations, in case you missed it , a human life is worth nothing.

6. The next atty gen needs to freeze this entire families assets, amd the entire cabinet

until every single penny is accounted for. Where it came from, how it got there, why it got moved. I don't care if it takes 2 decades, they won't need it before then, prison isn't that expensive.

7. Fox's Lara Trump Says 'Many' Trumps May Run for Office: It 'May Not End Just With Donald Trump!'

They'll be "running" alright, let's hope it's to Russia, Argentina and Hungary...

[SergeStorms]

9. They've had "Don Jr. for president" shirts for sale.....

for over two years now. Of course he'll win because every voting machine will have a Trump chip in it.
They have it all planned out and they're implementing that plan as we sit here.
The thousand year Trump Reich is in the works, and their cult can't wait.

13. Garry Kasparov has a stark warning for America.....

'I saw Putin's rise first-hand and Trump is using the same playbook… he's passed the point when he feels he can afford to lose power.'

8. why WOULDN'T they admit it

[Grim Chieftain]

12. +1000

Not a damn thing will be done about it. I am afraid for our democracy and our country. It has been taken over by a crazed
sociopath.

Money laundering. His first and main love.

Part of the Trump-Epstein sex, blackmail and money-laundering empire.

Now the other partner is the silent partner.
