[thegeneral 3,565]

I have no idea why this isn’t a bigger story

Barely mentioned.  Shady as hell and the money involved is staggering.

Pfft. We've got important stuff to talk about like the SOFI stadium replica being built east of the WH. 

But seriously, MAGA does. not. care. I'm starting to fear that there's no coming back for some of these folks.

Didn’t cow t the Fox News crew to discuss it but all duh fake news media crowd not talking about this either.

I think it’s in part to no one really understands what the hell goes on with Crypto.

Good summary of Trump’s crypto grift here.

Short version is he deregulated the industry and offers pardons and bribes in exchange for investment in his bitcoin boondoggle.

Remember when RLLD was Very Concerned about Sleepy Joe getting kickbacks from foreign entities? Wut a moron.

Right. It’s not even really hidden. That’s why I don’t get that it’s not a bigger story.

It’s not easily understood by the public and the Democrats are too busy running around shouting dictator and king.

I think it has to be that it’s not an easy topic. The fake news should be all over this. It’s right there. 

[Ron_Artest 2,164]

Flood the zone.

Nobody cares anymore.

The corruption is overwhelming, it's become normalized.

The only thing voters universally care about is their wallet: affordable goods and services, well paying jobs etc.

The Democratic Party should be out there every day saying Trump promised to lower prices Day 1 and now prices are higher because of his policies.

[SaintsInDome2006 620]

Honestly the whole thing is mind blowing. Hundreds of millions into the president’s pockets. It’s insane.

I agree with that messaging for winning a vote…however the media isn’t running for elections. The silence around this story is crazy.

The story is out there being reported on. FLOOD THE ZONE is working better in practice than it did in Steve Bannon's drunken fever dream fantasies. And RWM is ignoring it completely, natch.

It’s out there. Nobody cares. Congress won’t do anything and the WH writes it off as TDS.

The current Congress won’t do anything. If Dems take the House I assume this will get on some committees radar.

[thegeneral 3,565]

Zero of the maga crew has weighed in. I expected at least some whatabout Biden shtick.

It will. And once midterms are over, sane republicans will get more vocal about this stuff. 

Edit: Btw, Zhao is a Chinese born Canadian citizen and Binance managed financial transactions with Al Qaida, ISIS, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, etc. 

This admin pardons him but goes after colleges and universities. 

Hypocrisy is the brand!  
 

Edit: Binance also ran transactions for websites that sold child sex abuse materials. Also on brand for Pedo Don.

I'm telling you, they are wholly ignorant. You think Fox and Gateway Pundit are covering Don's bribery schemes? I've caught some Fox News recently because my dad watches it. Unless the news side is occasionally mentioning it, there is NOTHING. It's just a 100% bash dems for everything, praise Don for everything. It's focking lunacy. Every time I bring something up to my old man about this admin's corruption, the inevitable response is "I haven't heard about that." Dude gorges himself on RWM.
