Everything is a test to see if they can push things further. Hocking a vocal ass-sniffing donor’s wares in an absurd and awkward showcase to troll the left while showing he was in on the joke was all part of a grift and a test.
If you can do something so seemingly incompetent and bizarre, then you’ve cleared an opening to inject something more malignant next time.
So technically, in this specific instance, Trump Mobile isn’t run by Donald Trump. It’s instead a separate company run by Don Jr and Eric Trump. That company is then licensing the “Trump” name from The Trump Organization.
Now The Trump Organization is owned by Donald Trump, although officially run by Don Jr, Eric, etc.
But you’re absolutely right that all of this is bullshit. It’s also why Trump is so pissed at New York AG Letitia James for investigating and uncovering all sorts of shady business practices.
You’re absolutely right that Congress should be doing something about it.
This shit pisses me off.
If Biden/Obama/aoc were pulling this we’d hear about emoluments 24/7
But Trump does it and dems are like oh maybe we should just see what happens….
Then we have TrumpRX and Trump making millions off crypto
GDISM
I just can’t get over him selling beans in the oval office. it’s so absurd

If Congress did something about it might highlight or stifle their own unethical profiteering.
